Book Description
Excerpt from Photography Its Recognition as a Fine Art and a Means of Individual Expression You tell the poet that his lines remind you Of Homer, and he is crazy with delight. Stand in front Of a painting, in hearing Of an artist, and compare its coloring to a Titian or a Raphael, and he will remember you forever. I remember once standing in front Of a bit Of marble in Rome carved by Powers, a Ver monter. I said to an Italian standing near, Well, now, that seems to me to be perfection. TO be perfection? Shrugging his Shoulders. Why, sir, that reminds me Of Phidias, as if to remind one Of that Greek was a greater compliment than to be perfection. And SO he concluded that this very choice Of phrases betrayed a confession Of inferiority, and we Of the modern world have added hardly a single line or sweep Of beauty to the antique. I wish that Mr. Phillips could have been present here to-day to see and to hear this story Of art in photography as told by this quarter-century convention Of the Photographers' Association Of America, Photography, youngest among the graphic arts, not a lost art but a distinctly new and modern art, unknown to the ancients, invented, developed and wholly perfected by the people Of our day and generation. I wish it had been permitted him, I say, to stand here today with all his polite knowledge of ancient and modern times and to realize, as we are privileged to, the perfection to which this art has now grown; how, within the brief space Of fifty years it has grown from a vague suggestion Of1.

The Art of Photography, 2nd Edition
Author: Bruce BarnbaumPublisher: Rocky Nook, Inc.
ISBN: 1681982129
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 841
Book Description
This is an updated and newly revised edition of the classic book The Art of Photography: An Approach to Personal Expression. Originally published in 1994 and first revised in 2010, The Art of Photography has sold well over 100,000 copies and has firmly established itself as the most readable, understandable, and complete textbook on photography. Featuring nearly 200 beautiful photographs in both black-and-white and color, as well as numerous charts, graphs, and tables, this book presents the world of photography to beginner, intermediate, and advanced photographers who seek to make a personal statement through the medium of photography. Without talking down to anyone or talking over anyone's head, renowned photographer, teacher, and author Bruce Barnbaum presents how-to techniques for both traditional and digital approaches. In this newest edition of the book, Barnbaum has included many new images and has completely revised the text, with particular focus on two crucial chapters covering digital photography: he revised a chapter covering the digital zone system, and includes a brand-new chapter on image adjustments using digital tools. There is also a new chapter discussing the concepts of “art versus technique” and “traditional versus digital” approaches to photography. Throughout the book, Barnbaum goes well beyond the technical, as he delves deeply into the philosophical, expressive, and creative aspects of photography so often avoided in other books. Barnbaum is recognized as one of the world's finest landscape and architectural photographers, and for decades has been considered one of the best instructors in the field of photography. This latest incarnation of his textbook—which has evolved, grown, and been refined over the past 45 years—will prove to be an ongoing, invaluable photographic reference for years to come. It is truly the resource of choice for the thinking photographer. Topics include: • Elements of Composition • Visualization • Light and Color • Filters • Black-and-White • The Digital Zone System • The Zone System for Film • Printing and Presentation • Exploding Photographic Myths • Artistic Integrity • Realism, Abstraction, and Art • Creativity and Intuition • A Personal Philosophy • And much, much more…
Discovering Metaphor in Photography - A Search for Meaning
Author: Tammy ShafferPublisher: Dog Ear Publishing
ISBN: 1457570068
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
Art, philosophy, and science come together in Metaphor: The Universal Language of Photography. Metaphor introduces a way to look at fine art photographs by recognizing their inherent symbolic content in order to connect with the greater idea that lies behind each one. Learn how the featured photographers used characteristic elements inherent in photography to convey their vision, and how the viewer can, in turn, unveil that meaning—revealing the extraordinary intelligence behind these images. Discover the universal nature of what is expressed, something that communicates to all people through a connection with their own experiences. The authors offer valuable tools for appreciating the art of visual communication in fine art photographs—tools that may inspire you to look at the world in a different way. By taking the time to study an image and discover its elements, along with the underlying metaphor, you’ll realize a greater appreciation of photography and its value beyond the mere aesthetic pleasure of viewing it.
