Learning from the greats of photogaphy
BY Marc Silber on February 8, 2008As I mentioned earlier, we have a sparkling line up of shows on the horizon for Photowalking 2008. We’re now set to video Annie Leibovitz (we share mentions in Photoicon) at the end of the month walking with her through her show at the Legion of Honor in San Francisco, stay tuned for this unique experience to hear from a true legend…
What we’re going for is a series of the greats to download some of their knowledge and tools, as well as look through their eyes (or as close as we can get in the case of their children/grandchildren.)
This show has a great deal of potential for recognition and education in the art of photography: I see this as a parallel to the movement to make photography a fine art that was pulled off by Adams, Weston, Minor White, etc in the 30s and 40s. My aim is to teach the basics of photography from the masters themselves, and also get more insight into their work.
Photography is a life-long learning process…hope we can help you along with your journey.
