Alfred Stieglitz war ein US-amerikanischer Fotograf. Er war eine der wichtigsten Personen, der er die Fotografie förderte, und sie als Kunstform legitimieren wollte.

I forget who said it, but a writer who had interviewed many people who we'd consider to be geniuses said they all had one thing in common: an ability to keep working on one thing long past the point most people would find it tedious, boring, or frustrating.

Eliot Porter told me to keep sweeping and my friend Mark to keep editing. hahah I still do. Cleaning and sweeping until only the every best are shown. That's the kind of photographer Stieglitz wanted to have in his gallery. :) Still sweeping!!!!!

photography is not art. they who are not artists say photography is an art or they who are making a name or career from photography. An artist instinctively feels alien to photography. A genuine artist will say that Photography is the antithesis of high arts. I will tell you this, there is God given talent to be able to draw. And then every stroke that leaves a mark on a surface becomes unique and significant in its own existence. photography is completely different process, perhaps neurotic but never artistic.

You will see a difference in their reaction. They will not just see that you got their eyes right or their hair right, but rather if there is something of life in those eyes and how you were considerate, gave them your time, saw every feature and your skill traced the exact curves which they cant visualize with their eyes closed.. every brush stroke is vital, nothing is random..

Some good stuff here. I wish the deification had been dialed back a couple of notches, though. Within minutes the hyperbole gets really irksome. Stieglitz didn't "open the eyes of America to the 20th century," and he was no more "intensely human" than the next guy or gal.

After watching the Tate’s documentary on O’Keeffe I looked into backstories of his relationships to his wife, daughter, some of the other significant people in his life….pretty much an ambitious, opportunistic jerk … (love how the narrator editorialized his first wife as “prudish” in the first few minutes of the thing.)
@danc3693 Жыл бұрын
@@Rope-a-dope-v7y it isn’t unusual for highly creative people to be very self absorbed. I am not painting all of them that way. Stieglitz lived at a time where many - most? - men believed their wife should follow him in whatever he chose to do. O’Keefe eventually went her OWN way. I don’t mean to be overly simplistic. Stieglitz and his wife likely had basic compatibility issues so many other couples experience.

@@Rope-a-dope-v7y Yes, why is it so hard to understand that a woman might become 'prudish' towards a man who pays less and less attention to her, yet expects great ador? Or when he marries a woman for money? Or convenience? When I was young, the word was frigid. Now I don't hear remarks like this. This documentary said he had little time or taste for family life. So no surprise his wife lost that loving feeling for him over time.

I don't think there was any "deification" towards him - not sure where you get that. But to each his own (often people hear or perceive differently). I find what he did & what was inspiration. As for his marriage - clearly it got in the way of what he had to do. Though his wife probably did help by being exactly who she was, which inadvertently pushed him into his goals even more.

Stieglitz looked at the prints, Adams standing there hat in hand, his 1st real critic and a leader in NY. Handed the pictures back to Adams and said simply "Your photographs are welcome here anytime". For Adams, if was like God pronouncing his life worthwhile.

Despite the obligatory walk-ons, (far too many,) by the all usual self important windbags, (blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.....) this has been a wonderful and clear exposition of Stieglitz's life and work and an almost unique opportunity for me to have finally got to grips with it insomuch as anyone can ever really to grips with a lifetime's work in just over an hour; not just by seeing so many of his best pictures displayed and somewhat explained but it also lends to them a context and an additional perspective that is certainly, "helpful," if probably not indispensable. I've been as it were tripping over Stieglitz for many years now simply because of his association with Georgia O'Keeffe, but I never previously, "got," what he was about or why she so obviously regarded him so highly and as a kindred spirit. So, he was not overrated after all; not a bit.
@Eris123451 Жыл бұрын
@M M Well I suppose that's reasonable if as you say I, "knew the background," I might feel differently about him but I don't and you haven't explained it so three points. 1: There's nothing new in this as long as I can remember being interested in art Alfred Stieglitz has always been regarded as having been a pioneer of photography. 2. Georgia O'Keeffe, who was an important, talented and original artist herself and in her own right rated him highly. 3. Having now looked more closely and with a bit more insight at his photographs, some I which I've always admired I agree with her.

I miss them all-- thanks for noticing, and supplying a correction for the attribution... the creative circle to which Bellows, Shinn and others belonged- all the students of Robert Henri, and the founding energy behind the Art Students League in NY- were an influence quite alive for the man who'd taught me painting. And from him I'd learned that creative work thrives on good friendships and an exchange of ideas...not on isolation and unhealthy competition. Artists come to maturity in gatherings. Stieglitz was a visionary in the private world of his own work, but he'd also enriched the greater gathering of artists within his times. At best we can manage both, and follow his example.

Interesting. Love Georgia. Stieglitz was definitely a great character of the 20th Century. Unfortunately we are condemned to listen to the horrid, uneducated, prejudicial, and nasty, sarcastic attitude of Wanda Corn. She does a great disservice to art, culture, and America by opening up and exposing your horrid personality to the world in what could have been a great documentary about Alfred Stieglitz. She seems to forget that A FEMALE --Georgia O'Keeffe-- loved him. Wanda needs to reevaluate her politics and her views... What a waste and disappointment to have to listen to her carry on. Thank God I never had a class with her. I feel sorry for anyone who has had one or who has to listen to her drone on.
