Edmund Collein (1906 – 1992) was an East German architect and urban planner. A Bauhaus student until 1930, he attended priliminary courses taught by László Moholy-Nagy and Josef Albers, studied under Marcel Breuer and joined classes with Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky and Joost Schmidt. Collein's photography, much of which explored light and materials, is the only surviving work from his time at the Bauhaus.
