Cultura

Descobri recentemente duas fotos de Wynn Bullock que acho verdadeiramente magníficas. Espero que um dia destes tenha oportunidade de as ver ao vivo no Museu de Belas Artes em Houston. Ficam aqui para futura referência, acompanhadas de um pequeno excerto da visão do artista.

“Mysteries lie all around us, even in the most familiar of things, waiting only to be perceived.”

“Light to me is perhaps the most profound truth in the universe… [It] permits the same freedom of expression as paint for the painter, words for the writer, numbers for the mathematician, or sound for the composer.”

“You really have to give of yourself to make good pictures. Well, that giving takes a lot out of you, and you simply can’t operate at that intense level all the time. Neither can you predetermine what happens outside you. The fact that good pictures are rare, however, has never slowed me down. Just going out and looking at things and using a camera is therapeutic. I deeply love the whole process.”
