Jim Goldberg- Open See
Jube hea on postitada siia igast toredaid asju tagantjärgi, mis mind viimasel ajal on mõtlema pannud elust ja asjadest, või liigutanud mingil määral, või muutunud seda kuidas ma asju näen ja mõtlen. Oma viimasel nädalal UK's otsustasin(tegelikult oli ka viimane aeg..kooliprojektid nõuavad selliseid asju ja ma olin koguaeg aja puudumise tõttu seda edasi lükanud) külastada taas oma ühte lemmikut galleriid The Photographer's Gallery. see asub täpselt Oxford st'l..niiet kui te keegi sattute londonisse kasvõi päevakeseks..ning olete muidugi turistilõksude keerises ja picadillys ja oxford st..ja teid huvitab fotograafia kasvõi nati-nati...siis hüpake läbi! te ei kahetse:)
ütleme nii et kõik Magnum Photographers on mu maailma lemmikumad fotograafid.. kes ei tea siis tegu on Magnum photose'ga maailma kõigekõige parima( ja ilmselt kõige suuremad summad käivad läbi nende fotograafide ja piltide vahelt) fotoühendusega? tsekkk it autt ja Jim Goldberg on üks magnumi fotograafidest..niiet pole ime et ma veetsin seal oma kaks tundi..vaadates uurides ja imetledes kõike-kõike nendes ruumides. kes vähegi viitsib..klikkige igale pildile ja vaadake järgi mis see täpselt on ja mis on lugu iga pildi peal. ja asjade taga. ja lugege läbi selle teema kirjeldus ka enne. üritan kõike ikka korralikult ja ilusti edasi anda, nagu lives. üks korralik photo essay ei tee paha! votni. nautige!
Open See documents the experiences of people who travel from war torn, socially and economically devastated countries, to make new lives in Europe. They have left often violent, oppressive, poverty-stricken or AIDS ravaged communities, in search of stability and the promise of a better future. Originating from Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe and the Middle East, these ‘new Europeans’ have met violence and brutality as well as hope and liberation in their new homes.
Since 2003, Magnum photographer Jim Goldberg (b.1953, USA) has been photographing and collecting stories through a range of media: Polaroids, video, written text, ephemera, large and medium format photographs. The exhibition installation reflects his dynamic approach to documentary through dense displays of images, objects and text.
The Polaroids on show have often been defaced and written on by the people they portray. The words and images combine to tell intimate stories of past and present experiences. Faces and features are sometimes scratched out, coloured in, or marked in some way. Larger-scale colour photographs depicting landscapes from the subjects’ countries of origin appear both poetic and dystopic in equal measure. One image shows a young family walking along a sunlit road, while another is of a man standing on a vast rubbish tip holding a dead goat salvaged from the debris.
Part of an ongoing project by Goldberg, Open See confronts us with the realities of migration and the conditions for desiring escape.
