photography is the supreme test of the photographer

Landscapes,

- I
can't verbalize the internal meaning of pictures
whatsoever. Some of my friends can at very mystical
levels, but I prefer to say that, if I feel something
strongly, I would make a photograph, that would
be the equivalent of what I saw and felt.

- Not
everybody trusts paintings but people believe
photographs.
Ansel
Adams > Photography,
Painting,
Belief
- Photography
is an investigation of both the outer and the
inner worlds. The first experiences with the camera
involve looking at the world beyond the lens,
trusting the instrument will 'capture' something
'seen.' The terms shoot and take are not accidental;
they represent an attitude of conquest and appropriation.
Only when the photographer grows into perception
and creative impulse does the term make define
a condition of empathy between the external and
the internal events.

- To
photograph truthfully and effectively is to see
beneath the surfaces and record the qualities
of nature and humanity which live or are latent

Realism said, in effect: "we're going to
shock you by doing the thing that's been anathema
since the mid-l9th century. We're going to stay
closer to nature, we're going to stay as close
to nature as photography does, and we all know
that's awful, and that's precisely why we're going
to do it.
Clement
Greenberg > Realism,
Nature,
Photography,
Ugly
- When
photography's good, let me put it that way, it's
as good as painting.
Clement
Greenberg > Photography,
Good,

- One
of the things I'm doing in Yorkshire is finding
out how difficult it is to learn not to see like
cameras, which has had such an effect on us. The
camera sees everything at once. We don't. There's
a hierarchy. Why do I pick out that thing as opposed
to that thing or that thing?"
David
Hockney > Photography,
Learning,
Difficult,
Camera
- I
make installations and the final result is a video
projection and the photograph. If I didn’t
make video projections, then call me one thing;
if I didn’t make photos, then call me another.

- I’m
in between an installation artist, video artist
and photographer. And when you work with nude
bodies, you’re immediately called a pornographer
or a fashion photographer.
