| You may remember now that a few weeks ago we discussed a (the) question about (of) what the photography is. Is it an art or is it a method of reproducing images? The (Do) photographs belong to (in) museums or just in our home? Today we (I) want to talk about a person who tried to make his professional life an answer to such questions. A went from the United States to Germany to study engineering. While he was there, he became interested in photography and began to experiment with his camera. He took pictures under conditions that most photographers considered too difficult. He took midnight (them at night), in the rain and of people and objects reflected in the (去掉) windows. When he returned to the United States, he continued these revolutionary efforts. Steve was the first person to photograph skyscrapers, clouds and views from an airplane. What Steve was trying to do in these photographs was what he tried to do throughout his life: make photography an art. He thought that the photography could be just as good a form of self expression as painting and drawing. For A, his camera was his brush. For most photographers in the late 18th century (1800’s) and the early 19th century (1900’s), thought of their works as reproduction of identical images, S thought (saw) his as a creative art form. He understood the power of the camera to catch (capture) the moment. In fact, he never had touched his print or made copy of something. If you (he) were in this class for today, I am sure he would say: painters do not normally make extra copies of their printings, do they? (A=Steve=Alfred Stieglitz) |
