Niels was considered to be part of the seventh generation of the Danish-Norwegian Hartmann family.[1] He was educated in art at Kunsthåndværkerskolen[note 1] in Copenhagen from 1946–1950. In 1950 he established the studio Hartmann Design with his brother Jørgen Hartzack. Niels moved his work to Helsingborg in Skåne, Sweden in 1958, to the Danish island Als in 1959, and to Malmö in Skåne again from 1960–1963.[2] In 1967 he became a member of Alliance Graphique Internationale.[5] That same year he opened his own studio in Copenhagen, Niels Hartmann Industriel-grafik A/S, which he operated until his death in 1978.[2][6]
