killer set on the morhaim site i linked above, http://www.sarahsoquel.com/latest/archives/5090

those are pure joy

went up the the robert adams at yale this weekend and it totally ruuuuuuuuuled. dug it so much.
dayo you make it up?

wish I could shell out for the 3 volume anthology.

yeah I went last weekend. enjoyed the 1st flr much more than the 4th. went with friends who weren't too into photography so my time was limited :( wish I could have spent more time in the little book viewing room on the 4th flr

yeah I loved the books! and was glad that they were just all out there for perusing. probably generally leaned towards first floor, BUT I really like the seascapes stuff. the stuff that's all still currently on view at matthew marks, through the beginning of november. I want to pick up the books they've got on sale there still.

I enjoyed these

something about fred herzog should feel formulaic or easy, but doesn't, his photos are so emotional somehow

I need to party more

I ask Meyerowitz about the combative, confrontational style of street photography espoused by the likes of fellow New Yorker Bruce Gilden, and he grows visibly angry for the only time in our conversation. "He's a fucking bully. I despise the work, I despise the attitude, he's an aggressive bully and all the pictures look alike because he only has one idea – 'I'm gonna embarrass you, I'm going to humiliate you.' I'm sorry, but no."

#SHOTSFIRED

Gilden is pretty dull imo

stupid quote about how street photography is when you can smell the street or whatever

i had lunch with Wayne Levin yesterday!

ha ha
that's so rad!
what was it like, you guys trading tips on grain & talking about water temperatures?

ah, I didn't know that meyerowitz quote above was in relation to a new (expensive) book of his work: http://www.phaidon.com/store/photography/joel-meyerowitz-taking-my-time-9780714865027/
totally awesome. I've liked his stuff for a long time, and was frustrated that none of it was ever really available in a book, aside from one of those tiny little phaidon overviews.
too bad I can't afford this.

i think i'd be really disappointed if i bought a book for $800 & it came with a free cd. or dvd. like it just seems so gauche, a freebie. framed cells from the original 16mm transfer or gtfo.

i may have just exclaimed aloud in my apartment, and smacked my forehead, who is this pinkhassov and how is he so good at color and exposure, i almost want to quit photography

xp!!!!!!

this is more painterly than painting

IT ISN'T EVEN A REAL BALL

http://www.pavelkosenko.com/lj/0101/083.jpg
welp i quit

and those are just three ~that happened to be next to each other~

wait lol they weren't next to each other but w/e

he is v v v good at using pure shadow areas

btw how did ~swint get in there

totally not afraid to underexpose and get those deep, saturated colors + crushed velvet blacks

http://www.pavelkosenko.com/lj/0101/024.jpg

degas v kubrick

I see that as more of a tribute to alexey brodovitch

i just saw ballerinas and kinda went for it

http://www.pavelkosenko.com/lj/0101/072.jpg

imma challop off into the night and say that this is better than the mona lisa in just about every way

these have gotta be chromes, huh. I think that's aiding the underexposure/deep shadows/lotsa highlight details etc. prob good for taking pictures in winter at northern latitudes with very angled light.
makes me want to try that combo.

I got the link from TOP btw. just ordered the book of his that's avialable on amazon will let you guys know how it is

you're still giving away your camera right?

lol ._.
