Pete Turner 的奇幻天空

最近做了一組奇幻森林的系列,今天剛好在學校看到Pete Turner 的作品, 覺得跟他心靈相通。
”Color was color, with a life of its own, and Turner decided brashly that he could do whatever he wanted with it. Why shouldn't the sky behind a sihoietted giraffe be a lurd, dawn-of-the-earth red?" Owen Edwards. P.12

Do you love taking photos that much?

 "Do you love photography that much? Why are you taking photos?
Why do I care why you are taking photos? It's so important because it's so easy to take a photo nowadays. It's what makes your image powerful." by Albert H.

【攝影集】Social Graces - Photographs by Larry Fink



by susu




一開始翻這本Larry Fink的攝影集,很難不注意到他使用閃光燈的方式,他的裁切方式也非常引人注目。然而,書裡面最特別的是他眼中的宴會似乎有點荒謬。
如同Max Kozloff說的,他巧妙地把短暫瞬間的一瞥,經由光線轉化為精心完成的戲劇效果。他使我們印象深刻的並不是是滿足觀眾獵奇心態的影像,而是情慾的,狂喜的。
("it impresses us not at all as newsy and nosey, as in Weegee,but as voluptuous and even ecstatic." )
