>I like Andreas Gursky and Alex Gronsky both but i tend to forget about gronsky more often than the former, idk why

both surnames too similar, the more prominent one gets on top. although give me gronsky any day of the week. over burtynsky too.

btw ever watched the burtynsky docu? found it as a dvd image, thought it was gonna look awesome, but quality was very shit.

Daido, Fukase, Winogrand, Gilden, Shin Noguchi. There are others but Daido is the greatest to me.

Yura Gai is a very famos photographer in my country, Georgia. I don't think you have heard of her.

really? i have that guy on fb, hes pretty swell, hes always posting OC, post everything he has in fact, daily.

>>2795375
Yeah I dig his style a lot, very different than the typical "dark & gritty" street stuff, although obviously I like that as well. I found him accidentally through Instagram, been following since.

>>2794862
>trent parke
Man this guy just takes high contrast snapshits and is clearly on the spectrum. I am not titillated by his photos at all. He basically just exploits that he lives in a sunblasted shithole of a desert, and then blows the contrast for dat edge.

>>2795002
>i feel like alot of his photos are just kinda boring and uninspired

Not all of them are standalone like "Charles." He's a very sequence-driven photographer, so not every photo is as overtly interesting or outstanding as the others. They're all working together to convey different themes he has going on in his sequences.

I don't see how a few paragraphs detailing how he chooses to waste his time and be an autistic faggot makes his snapshits any more dignified or complex.

Anyone can write a sophomore english paper's worth of nonsense about their method, or to recount a narrative of one particular photograph

>>2801321
>snapshit

It's faggots like you who are wrecking human expression.

There's all manner of critique you can give dude's work, but calling them snapshits is irredeemably ignorant and stupid. There is every indication of consideration, thought, and effort in his images. Whether you think that's wasted effort is an entirely different matter. It also goes to show that you haven't the first idea of how to actually criticize works or even think of them.

And no, I'm not attempting to imply or outright state that effort matters in the final result from the stance of achieving artistic goals, but it definitely removes from play the idea that the shots are "snapshits".

>>2795837
dude jesus youre so cringey, colonialist photography? really nigga?

>>2795520
probably true, i probably havent explored enough of his photography to get a great idea of photography so ill take your word for it

>>2801275

that shot is prolly his mamiya tlr with 55mm lens. fuji 64T film. soft light is just cold mist/humidity.

Well the job position is "Show the average middle class american what life is like in other parts of the world" which pretty much necessitates taking photos of people from other cultures. At what point does education about other ways of life become cliche exploitation?

That's like saying it's cliche and insulting to learn about fractions in math class. It's sort of the reason you're there.

Some years back at a Borders Book store in north west Omaha Nebraska a husband and wife wife discovered a book by Sally Man which contained pictures she had taken of her kids in various states of undress. This stressed the couple so much they were arrested by police when they started publicly yelling child pornography and damaging the books at the store. I had just left the store an hour prior and happened passed the book my self. Now I wish I had picked it up to see what the fuss was about.

thats a pretty retarded story.

top art photog philip lorca dicorcia has many series, one of them titled "Heads", which consisted in street portraits via a carefully arranged setup that triggered the camera and a flash at the moment people were passing by. that way he got lots of very good, kinda studio looking candid street portraits.

all people portrayed were very happy with the portraits (once exhibited), except one guy, who ended up suing him. luckily dicorcia won the case.

pic of course related.

hes pretty damn good and getting to know his work made me abandon crewdson for good. you explore dicorcia and you learn what are the posibilities of the "cinematic" (lel) look but with actual content, not just a neat aesthetic.

What's the name of the photographer who took that picture of the hand holding the lighter that had really beautiful pastel tones to it?

I think it was a lighter...seem to remember the photog being Japanese too.

Mapplethorpe is also there after all. I just think they were doing more than just "form form form". There's something special to them and there's a lot of discussion/ideas that can come from the blurred out architecture, or the screens
