Free Movies In Spanish Online

pictures this year ...

has already been a year ... and then we're back in the area World Press Photo and, therefore, Lucca Digital Photo Fest , who has just finished (and I went there just the last day!).
The World Press Photo, in the case of photo journalism in the previous year, it's always a slap in the face .... I have not had a chance to see a year where there were atrocities .... I must say that there are pictures that leave me with his mouth open, because with few elements and without slamming into the face of stark reality, we can give all the information without attacking.
To get an idea here you can see all the winners (unfortunately there is no other way to see them!)



Among the current exhibitions to my surprise I liked it very much that of Richard Avedon! I am surprised because I knew him as a photographer Avedon linked to the world of fashion, and then to a certain type of photography.
In fact, we worked for 50 years, so much of its production is related to this industry, then worked on the great names of cinema (Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Brigitte Bardot and many others) and other industries (Karen Blixen, Henry Kissinger, Eisenhower, The Beatles, Andy Warhol, Francis Bacon...), certo, apportando innovazioni rivoluzionarie: grazie a lui le indossatrici non erano più solo degli oggetti immobili, alla stregua di appendiabiti, ma persone, che vivono in una determinata epoca, che, se vogliamo, in un certo qual modo la documenta, perché Avedon porta le proprie modelle in strada e le fa muovere, passando così dalla foto statica a quella dinamica, dalla modella alla persona reale (attenzione: parliamo ancora degli anni '50-'60!)

What I did not know is that at some point Avedon had "broken" with the world of fashion and, in 1995, the New Yorker published a work called "In memory of the late Mr. and Mrs. Comfort. A fable by having Richard, "that somehow puts all his work into question also, because what it represents is a story with two characters clearly opposed, on one hand the beauty of a model as Nadja Auermann the other a skeleton and disturbing, wanting to emphasize the decline, even choose the sets that do nothing but accentuate them. short, a strong representation of the vacuity of the fashion world!
What most impressed us is how he managed to make even a skeleton of expression through the postures, clothing, shots ....

Instead, what "I can not explain is how, despite fierce criticism, he has been able to have carte blanche from the designers who have put available to their clothes .... I dare say a demonstration of great respect!
Wanting to see all the work you can click here (editing is not beautiful, but at least the pictures are not cut!).
