Andre Kertesz,
By Amada Medina (San Diego, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Andre Kertesz: Sixty Years of Photography 1912-1972 (Hardcover)
Andre Kertesz, Sixty Years of PhotographyAndre Kertesz was known as the photographersEphotographer. He worked to capture the things he saw and wanted to photograph, and I think that's what separated him from the rest of the photographers. Kertesz captured the motion and converts it to a poetic melody. Simplicity and the sense of form was what he was aiming for. All of his photographs have some kind of symbolic meaning witch made the image beautiful in a surrealistic way. Kertesz worked in a variety of modes, from portraits to still lives to nude distortions to photo-reportage, he captures the telling moment and expressive details from subjects. His distorted nudes became surrealist as a way of interpreting a classical subject through his own style. The human body when combined with the movement and sensitivity of reflective light became a different subject. Kertesz style changes frequently but what doesn't change is the lyric truth behind each of his photographs. The full range of his masterly-fragile, intimate and gently ironic style makes the subject his own. The photographs with people walking in the streets have certain patterns and deep space that half of the lines converge to vanishing points. He captures peoplesEgesture that demonstrates their personal life story in a poetic way that makes life seem beautiful. "Respect yourself as well as your subject matterE is the well given advice from a great photographer.
