Henri Cartier-Bresson - Manhattan, 1947.
I’ve been looking at the work of Cartier-Bresson as a self motivated project that I’m currently shooting on film. I’m looking to explore how film makes a photograph look different in contrast to digital in the current age.
Edward Steichen - The Maypole
Rodchenko - Balconies
Lisette Model - Reflection
Clarence John Laughlin - Wilderness
Herbert Bayer - Lonely Metropolitan (1932)
I originally sourced this photograph from Dawn Ades book ‘Photomontage’ (Link below). Straight away, I was intrigued by how unique it was. There are many things that capture the viewers eye to make such an inviting photograph, like the fact the two eyes are different colours, or the strong contrast of the photograph.
My personal reaction to this photo is that the hands are symbolising someone looking through the building windows, but hiding behind their hands to provide secrecy.
