Photographer Saul Leiter - A Street Photographer who loved abstraction and beauty

Описание: THIS VIDEO: A talk about Saul Leiter and his work. He is a photographer who only stepped into the spotlight later in life. His photographs are romantic, nostalgic, and form a bridge between photography and painting. His distinctive colour work is immediately recognizable and I haven’t yet come across anyone who doesn’t appreciate his work. He is also a very humble, self-effacing individual. There are a lot of reasons why his photographs are so distinctive and why they appeal to such a large audience.
His fellow photographers appreciated his talent and he was included in what was called - The New York School. He was influenced by the shifts within the painting scene as it shifted rapidly towards what would become known as the abstract expressionist movement. He was a street photographer with a passion for abstraction and beauty.

ABOUT ME: The conversations focus on topics related to different aspects of photography including: art, documentary and photojournalism. The discussions explore the personal experiences of photographers and artists and how their work reflects both their internal and external landscape. During the past 30 years I have photographed in over 50 countries for magazines including National Geographic, Time, New York Times and Newsweek. I have held solo exhibitions in New York, London and Paris and my work is showcased in private and institutional art collections around the world.
