“When you see what you express through photography, you realize all the things that can no longer be the objectives of painting. Why should an artist persist in treating subjects that can be established so clearly with the lens of a camera?” ShouldArtistRealizingSubjectsPaintingPhotographyCamerasObjectivesPersistLenses Author:Pablo Picasso

“Of course, it may be that the arts of writing and photography are antithetical. The hope and aim of a word-handler is that he maycommunicate a thought or an impression to his reader without the reader's realizing that he has been dragged through a series of hazardous or grotesque syntactical situations. In photography the goal seems to be to prove beyond a doubt that the cameraman, in his great moment of creation, was either hanging by his heels from the rafters or was wedged under the floor with his lens in a knothole.” WritingMayHas BeensArtMomentsSeemsCoursesGoalRealizingSituationDoubtCreationReaderProvePhotographyAimSeriesImpressionHeelsLensesGrotesqueGreat MomentsCameramanArt Of WritingRafters Author:E.

“Anything that looks like an idea is probably just something that has accumulated, like dust. It looks like I have ideas because I do books that are all on the same subject. That is just because the pictures have piled up on that subject. Finally I realize that I am really interested in it. The pictures make me realize that I am interested in something.” LooksBookIdeasRealizingSubjectsPhotographyDust Author:Lee Friedlander
“The fact is that the camera is literal if anything, which gives it something in common with a thermometer... Often the tension that exists between the pictorial content of a photograph and its record of reality is the picture's true beauty. There is sleight of hand in photography... you make the viewer think he's seeing everything while at the same time you make him realize he's not. I try to make my pictures seem reasonable and then, at the last minute, pull the rug from beneath the viewer's feet, very gently so there's a little thrill.” IfsThinkingGivingTryingLittlesFactsHandsRealitySeemsLastsRealizingCommonRecordsSeeingFeetMinutesPhotographyCamerasPhotographTensionReasonableThrillViewersLiteralTrue BeautyLast MinutePictorialThermometersSleight Of Hand Author:John Loengard
“Basically, I thought for a very long time that making music and art projects, that that was just something that I did, and real life was separate. And I'm starting to realize that the things that I do, making music and art and photography and all that, it's not just something that I do. It's who I am. So I don't think I'll ever be able to stop. It's like that curse that you live with, this thing that you love but you also hate it at the same time. It brings you a lot of joy but also a lot of heartbreak.” ThinkingLongArtRealAbleJoyHateRealizingProjectsPhotographyLong TimeStartingReal LifeWho I AmCurseArt Projects Author:Frank Iero

“To the vast majority of people a photograph is an image of something within their direct experience: a more-or-less factual reality.
