FOTOGRAFIA

 

	Arnold Newman Photo Gallery
		December 2003. The Digital Journalist. «There was a boy born in Manhattan in 1918. His family moved to New Jersey where his father started a new dry goods business. While in college in 1934 at the University of Miami, he began making photographs with his friend Ben Rose. Thereupon he became famous overnight. That's the story. Students always ask some variation of "How can I be famous and sell my photographs for thousands of dollars?" Questions such as these do not go down well with Arnold Newman.» EEUU - inglés

	Arnold, Eve
		Magnum Photos. «Eve Arnold was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania of immigrant Russian parents. She began photographing while working at a photo-finishing plant in New York City in 1946, then studied photography (for 6 weeks) with Alexei Brodovitch at New York City's New School for Social Research in 1948.» EEUU - inglés

	At home in Vanuatu. Tradition in the Western Pacific
		California Academy of Sciences. «David Becker has lived on a sailboat in the Western Pacific for more than 20 years. He is currently based in New Caledonia, just south of Vanuatu. He specializes in cultural photography, working with museums and other cultural institutions, primarily in Melanesia. Sailing through Papua New Guinea for eight months in 1986, Becker saw how rapidly traditional cultures were being changed by contact with the outside world. With friends, he founded The Society for the Recording of Vanishing Cultures, and has since devoted his life to this work.» EEUU - inglés

	Atget, Eugène
		George Eastman House. «Eugène Atget was born in 1857 near Bordeaux. After working as an actor in regional theaters, he settled in Paris in 1890, taking up photography in 1898. He photographed Paris, working on commissions from various city departments as well as the Carnavalet Museum. The Surrealists appreciated his work, most notably Man Ray, who arranged for Atget’s work to be published in La Revolutions Surrealiste in 1926. The photographer Berenice Abbott purchased Atget’s collection after his death in 1927.» 494 photographs EEUU - inglés Francia

	Avedon at Work in the American West
		June 2004. The Digital Journalist. «Richard Avedon was fifty-five years old in October of 1978 and at the top of his game. He had spent his life photographing people of power, people of accomplishment and women of great beauty: Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Ford and Carter. Samuel Beckett, Bob Dylan, Marella Agnelli. The Mission Council in Saigon. The Chicago Seven. Four major exhibitions in eight years had now culminated in a retrospective of his fashion work at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

	Bar Am, Micha
		Magnum Photos. «Micha Bar-Am, who has been a Magnum correspondent since 1968, was born in Berlin and resides in Ramat Gan, Israel.

	Barrow, Thomas F.
		George Eastman House. «Thomas Barrow's work displays a designer's concern for materials and process while addressing issues that are "fundamentally intellectual, challenging the viewer to interpret the multiple references to contemporary culture, art history, and literature."» 65 Selected Images EEUU - inglés

	Bartolomé Ros: a través de un objetivo
		Centro Virtual Cervantes. «Bartolomé Ros, el fotógrafo que llenó de Marruecos las páginas de las mejores revistas españolas en los años 20 y 30, vuelve a África de la mano del Instituto Cervantes. Un acierto que agradecerán cuantas personas se acerquen a contemplar las fotografías que forman esta exposición. Fue este país, abierto a Europa durante el siglo XIX, objeto de deseo y curiosidad para escritores y artistas, en una visión bastante alejada de la realidad, las más de las veces, y que dio en llamarse orientalismo. La fotografía, nacida por aquellas fechas, iba a ser ayuda esencial para apartarse de estereotipos, convirtiéndose en apoyo imprescindible del africanismo, corriente que sustituyó a la anterior.» España

	Battlefields
		By Christopher Morris. 2001. The Digital Journalist. «The essence of American photojournalism, as it is taught in American universities and academies like The International Center of Photography in New York, has its basics in photography as "historical testimony." In this view, the picture of an event, of a social change, a historical or casual step of our becoming, is meant to witness and forge our visual imaginary of history. For this reason it is loaded with an ethical responsibility often difficult to bear and to manage by those who chose to be "photographers concerned in delivering history." This is the reason why only few "war photographers" manage to fulfill this utopia in their career.» EEUU - inglés

		Biblioteca Virtual Miguel de Cervantes. Universidad de Alicante. Edició digital basada en l'edició de Barcelona, Vives, 1874. España

	Bellocq, E. J.
		Profoto.com «Nobody knows much about E. J. Bellocq, an unexceptional commercial photographer who lived in New Orleans shortly after the turn of the century. He took a lot of pictures of boats to pay the rent. He was an odd, indrawn, misshapen man, hydrocephalic and a dwarf.» EEUU - inglés

	Benedicte Wrensted: An Idaho Photographer in Focus
		National Museum of Natural History. Smithsonian Institution. «The remarkable photography of Benedicte Wrensted (1859-1949) lay in obscurity for decades until brought to light by the detective work of Smithsonian anthropologist Joanna Cohan Scherer. In 1984, while researching photographs for the Smithsonian's Handbook of North American Indians, Scherer found a collection of glass plate negatives at the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) in Washington, DC. Labeled only as "Portraits of Indians from Southeastern Idaho Reservations, 1897," the images were so compelling that Scherer had prints made for the Handbook - a 20 volume encyclopedia summarizing the anthropology and history of Indians and Eskimos of North America north of Mesoamerica.» EEUU - inglés

	Berlin
		By Roger Hutchings. June 2003. The Digital Journalist. «It is not easy to depict a city without falling into the celebration of its monuments, the description of the touristic and picturesque, the representation of the obvious and the portrayal of banal photographic sequences.» Alemania

	Berry, Ian
		Magnum Photos. «Ian Berry made his reputation as a photojournalist with his reporting from South Africa where he worked for the Daily Mail and later Drum magazine. He was the only photographer to document the massacre at Sharpeville, his photographs subsequently used in the trial proving the victim's innocence.» Reino Unido

		Photographs Do Not Bend Gallery. EEUU - inglés

	Bischof, Werner
		Magnum Photos. «Werner Bischof studied photography with Hans Finsler in his native Zürich at the School for Arts and Crafts (1932 -1936), then opened a photography and advertising studio which he ran until his military service in 1939. As of 1942, he was a freelancer for Du magazine, and got international recognition after publication of his 1945 reportage on war's devastation.» Suiza

	Blues Highway
		By Bill Steber. 1999. The Digital Journalist. «These photographs are my attempt to document the living legacy of this rich cultural tradition. The Blues is our country's most important musical art form for it has shaped every musical form developed in it's wake, including gospel, jazz, rock and roll, bluegrass and modern country. It's echoes still resound in the sweaty juke joints and dusty cotton fields along Highway 61.» EEUU - inglés

	Boat Peoples of Indochina
		Canada's Digital Collections. Government of Canada. «The Boat Peoples of Indochina is a testimony to the power of imagery and the role of photography in how we see and think about war. While the name Kim Phuc is unfamiliar, the photograph of the girl who was flayed by napalm in the Vietnam War has seared itself into the consciousness of millions. It was these images of thousands in refugee camps and of survivors being plucked from the South China Sea that convinced governments around the world to accommodate the mass movements of Indochinese refugees. In this regard, Canada has set a world standard in its humanitarian acceptance of refugees.» Canadá

	Bob Lerner: A Good Look
		March 2003. The Digital Journalist. «Robert Sherman Lerner was born in 1926 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin--without a camera in hand. He was just 10 when he discovered his father's old Kodak Autograph, and 13 when he won his first photo contest for his photographs of Boy Scouts camping in the north woods of Wisconsin. Perhaps more telling than the camping photographs, however, is his snapshot of a house after a snowstorm. Haunting in its illumination, the dwelling seems braced for nature's assault as frigid shadows flank its foundation. Shot in his teens, the image conveys a strong feeling of isolation, reminiscent of the houses painted by Edward Hopper.» EEUU - inglés

	Bollywood Dreams
		By Jonathan Torgovnik. 2003. The Digital Journalist. «It is the biggest in the world. It turns out far more films than Hollywood, and in fact, most of the rest of the world combined (with the possible exception of China.) The movies are filled with romance, lust, action, and of course thousands of dancing maidens (generally being drenched by massive hoses.)» India

		George Eastman House. «Francis Bruguière was born in San Francisco to a wealthy banking family and was privately educated.

Eugene encouraged Bruguière to investigate the aesthetic possibilities of photography, and Stieglitz accepted him as a member of the Photo-Secession, though Bruguière remained on the fringes of the movement.» Index to 105 Selected Images EEUU - inglés

	Burri, René
		Magnum Photos. «Born in Zürich, René Burri studied composition, color and design at the School for Arts and Crafts in his hometown. Later on as he became a photographer, he also pursued his earlier interests in series of diary-like collages and by integrating writing, painting and photography. From 1953-55 he worked as a documentary filmmaker and started using a Leica while he was in the military service. In 1955 he made contact with Magnum through Werner Bischof, and his first reportage on deaf-mute children was published in Life and other European magazines.» Suiza

	Callahan, Harry
		George Eastman House. «Harry Callahan was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan. He purchased his first camera in 1938 and joined the camera club at Chrysler Motors, where he worked. Strongly influenced by a 1941 lecture and workshop given by Ansel Adams, Callahan traded his enlarger for an 8 x 10 view camera. In 1946 Callahan was hired by László Moholy-Nagy to teach photography at the Institute of Design in Chicago. He taught at the Institute until 1961, at which time he left for the Rhode Island School of Design, where he taught until his retirement in 1977.» 91 Selected Images EEUU - inglés

	Cameras: the Technology of Photographic Imaging
		Museum of the History of Science, Oxford. «The Museum of the History of Science has a small but fine collection of cameras, early photographic lenses and accessories, and darkroom equipment. In all there are about eight hundred items covering a wide spectrum of photographic history, from a lens of 1839 of the type used by Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre to an example of a 1960s Russian 'FED 4' camera and beyond. Rare cameras with specialist uses - such as the Sutton panoramic camera of circa 1861 with its characteristic bulbous glass-and-water lens - are amongst those represented as well as mass-produced models such as the Kodak Instamatic of 1966, one of the first cartridge-film cameras.» Reino Unido

	Cameron, Julia Margaret
		George Eastman House. «Julia Margaret Cameron was born in Calcutta, India on June 11, 1815, the fourth of ten children, seven celebrated daughters of whom survived to adulthood. Well educated and creatively inclined, she embraced the literary and visual arts, merging these so-called sister arts in her zealous avocation of photography as both a spiritually imbued and poetically inspired fine art.» 163 Selected Images EEUU - inglés

	Canadian Artic
		Jerry Riley, Toronto. «The Arctic offered that spiritual peace that is present in all landscapes. It is a place of light, pastels, and colours made sharp by the cold. The terrain is a never ending emptiness at the edge of the habitable world, but beckons to be explored and interpreted. It is special.» Canadá

	Canadian Illustrated News
		National Library of Canada. «The Canadian Illustrated News site is a selection of almost 4000 images of people, places and events across Canada and around the world taken from the popular 19th-century magazine. Canadian Illustrated News was published in Montreal, Quebec by George Desbarats from 1869 to 1883 and was notable for its innovative use of half-tone photographs.» Canadá

	Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography - CMCP
		«The Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography was founded and affiliated with the National Gallery of Canada in January 1985. However, its history can be traced back to World War II (1939–1945), as the Still Photography Division of the National Film Board of Canada. For nearly 5 decades, the Division collected and championed Canadian photography. It built up its collection by assigning photographers to document Canada, its resources and its people. This extensive archive of negatives dating from 1941 to 1962 is now housed at the National Archives of Canada. In the 1960s, the Division established its fine print collection, and started its exhibition and publication program.» Canadá
