HER WORKS

 

In Finding Vivian Maier, Maloof teams with producer Charlie Siskel to uncover this mystery. Following clues, they trace Maier’s history through New York City, France, and Chicago. Maier was an inveterate wanderer and self-taught photographer, favouring a Rolleiflex twin-lens reflex camera, with an uncanny ability to get close to people from all walks of life. Her artful and comic eye calls to mind the photography of Berenice Abbott and Weegee. Thanks to Maloof’s efforts, critics and galleries have now rallied behind Maier’s work, and The New York Times recognized her as “one of America’s more insightful street photographers.”

But as Maloof meets people who knew Vivian, new questions arise about her life and work. The families who employed her as a nanny have mixed memories, and hint at her dark side. Would she have even wanted this attention? Answering that question depends on how you interpret different bits of evidence. Regardless, it’s a wonder to behold the world through Vivan Maier’s eyes.

André Kertész

André Kertész

he born on 2 July 1894

dead on 28 September 1985 

he was a hungarian-born photographer know for his groundbreaking contributions to photographic composition and the photo essay.

Perhaps more than any other photographer, Andre Kertesz discovered and demonstrated the special aesthetic of the small camera. These beautiful little machines seemed at first hardly serious enough for the typical professional, with his straightforward and factual approach to the subject. Most of those who did use small cameras tried to make them do what the big camera did better; deliberate, analytical description.

my opinion 

in his work i see a big contrast pain poor and happy. those who should have peace life but cause of the war they live in pain. they are flower of this country, they are pure. they are suffering. i don't know what should i say. the wars happening are not the their faults . but  those innocent kids become to the sacrifice in the war. they lost their family, stop study. aftermath, take out the gan, become to  kill machine. i rejoice that i still can see the hope in they face. they still smile. they still looking forward the peaceful life. David Seymour's work is amazing. he use his lens to record this. he is a hero.
