“Not only do we end up with a vivid, surprising and soulful sense of one artist and his work, but Leigh also offers us a commanding view of a city, London, and country at the dawn of the modern age and of a man being overawed and overtaken by new technologies such as photography and the railways. As ever with Leigh, 'Mr Turner' addresses the big questions with small moments. It's an extraordinary film, all at once strange, entertaining, thoughtful and exciting.” MenEndsCountryMomentsBigsAgeFilmArtistViewsCitiesTechnologyModernStrangeOffersPhotographyExcitingExtraordinaryLondonDawnThoughtfulAddressesSurprisingEntertainingVividNew TechnologyRailwaySoulfulBig QuestionsTurnerModern AgeSmall Moments Author:Dave Calhoun
“Photography intervenes in a very strange way. It makes the streets, gates, squares of the city into illustrations of a trashy novel, draws off the banal obviousness of this ancient architecture to inject it with the most pristine intensity.” WayCitiesNovelStreetsStrangePhotographyDrawsAncientArchitectureGatesIntensitySquaresIllustrationPristineObviousness Author:Louis Aragon
“I went back to photography in the 1990s. But from the 60s to the 90s I didn't really take any photographs at all, unfortunately. During that period I lived in France, I lived in England, I lived all over the place in different cities. I didn't take any photographs and because I felt I had really accomplished everything that I wanted to in photography during the period between 61 and 67.” DifferentWantedFeltCitiesPeriodsPhotographyEnglandPhotographFranceAccomplished Author:Dennis Hopper
“I didn't do well in high school, but I took photography, and I loved being able to capture moments. It led to more and more photography, and fashion was the angle into photography for me. It was incredible to see photographs by Irving Penn or Helmut Newton. I was really intrigued by that, and that's what led me to New York City.” WellsMomentsAbleSchoolCitiesFashionNew YorkPhotographyHigh SchoolIncrediblesPhotographCaptureNew York CityAngleNewtonIntrigued Author:Steven Sebring

“The challenge for me has first been to see things as they are, whether a portrait, a city street, or a bouncing ball. In a word, I have tried to be objective. What I mean by objectivity is not the objectivity of a machine, but of a sensible human being with the mystery of personal selection at the heart of it. The second challenge has been to impose order onto the things seen and to supply the visual context and the intellectual framework - that to me is the art of photography.” FirstsHumansHeartMeanHas BeensArtOrderChallengesHuman BeingsCitiesMysteryStreetsPhotographyIntellectualMachinesBallsPhotographerObjectivesVisualsSensiblePortraitsSelectionFrameworkObjectivityCity StreetsBouncing Ball Author:Berenice Abbott
“Images of people, cities, and landscapes from the air tell a unique story about our personal space and how we relate to one another. I've always aimed to address the bigger picture and later trends. In many ways, what a photographer does is give others a chance to step back and look at their world and gain perspective on where we stand, and what that means.” PeopleWorldWayGivingLooksMeanDoeStoriesChanceSpaceCitiesStepsAirPerspectivePhotographyUniqueGainsBiggerPhotographerRelateLandscapeAddressesTrendsBigger PicturePersonal Space Author:Vincent Laforet
“It seems so utterly naive that landscape - not that of the pictorial school - is not considered of "social significance" when it has a far more important bearing on the human race of a given locale than excrescences called cities.” HumansImportantSeemsSchoolGivenSocialRaceCitiesPhotographyLandscapeHuman RaceSignificanceNaivePictorial Book:The letters between Edward Weston and Willard Van Dyke Source: The letters between Edward Weston and Willard Van Dyke
