imagine

“Imagine a world without photography, one could only imagine.”

Berenice Abbott

on how photography grows

“Photography can never grow up if it imitates some other medium. It has to walk alone; it has to be itself.”

Berenice Abbott

what photography is not

“Let us first say what photography is not. A photograph is not a painting, a poem, a symphony, a dance. It is not just a pretty picture, not an exercise in contortionist techniques and sheer print quality. It is or should be a significant document, a penetrating statement, which can be described in a very simple term – selectivity.”
