When John Maloof bought a box full of negatives about 8 years ago,m he had no idea that it would send him on a journey not only into the undiscovered work of a great photographer, but into an investigation of a life. He teamed up with Charlie Siskel to put it all on film and the duo has brought us one of the great docs about art and process. The duo talked to David Poland about the journey.
Sabemos muito sobre a obra de Hopper porque ele mantinha uns cadernos com os esboços preliminares, e outro onde fazia um desenho da obra acabada. E sua mulher, a Josephine, fazia uma descrição da tela, da técnica, e quem tinha comprado a obra e o preço.

“A arte é tanto amor e amizade, e compreensão; o desejo de doar. É ao mesmo tempo dar e receber beleza, a transformação da luz nas dobras internas da consciência do espírito.”
Ansel Adams, em carta a Cedric Wright.
“Eu fui capaz de realizar uma imagem como desejava: não a forma como aparecia na realidade, mas como eu a senti e deveria aparecer na impressão final.”
A sua idéia era bastante simples e inovadora: criar uma nomenclatura adequada para a luz. Adams era músico e sua vontade de transpor para a fotografia os tons de cinzas como notas musicais, deram origem à sua metodologia, que estabelece relações entre… +

A word about color. Color is absolutely crucial to his vision, it is part of why these images appear a bit unreal. Almost all the images in the show were dye transfer, a process that is dying now as the last reserves of the dyes and chemicals are being used up. Kodak stopped making the materials in 1994. There are a number of master printers who, at that time, stocked up on the materials and froze them. As every day goes by, these frozen supplies are being exhausted. Looking at these images up close, and being able in the show to compare them to a few images he had included that used inkjet as their medium, it became clear to me what a difference the dye process made and how important it was to these images. Eggleston calls dye transfer ‘seductive,’ and I think that is a good word for it. The colors were bold yet subtle at the same time, and screen images just cannot reproduce the visceral experience of seeing them in the flesh. (…)
Uma das suas obras mais conhecidas realizadas pelo processo “Dye-transfer”, “The Red Ceiling”, também conhecida como “Greenwood”, Mississippi, 1973.

Michael Lange: When one wishes to do a personal project one has to be willing to open up to private stuff and to go deep. In order to go deep it’s good to have a safe base. Since my early childhood the woods have been a safe base. At my family home there was a lot of stress and fighting. The forest behind the house was my refuge. All together WALD was a slow process, a kind of incrementalism (…)
