The Genius of Photography 摄影演义后传- 17

In the course of our 170 year relationship, photography has delighted us, served us, moved us, outraged us and occasionally disappointed us. But mainly, it has intrigued us by showing the secret strangeness that lies beneath the world of appearances. And that is photography"s true genius.

“This was a young woman who"s probably had bad teeth so she wouldn"t want to smile in a way that, that would show them. But the thing that interests me so much about the picture, the picture was taken in 1936 and by then he was an accomplished master at composition, and yet he was willing to give over the part of the authorship of the picture to her because what she did when he got that close really determines what the picture is. It"s not an easily readable emotion. It"s not illustration of an idea about who these people were. It"s an actual encounter between one subject in front of the camera who has equal human presence as the person behind the camera.”

But though he aspired to the directness of an Atget or a Sander, Evans" understanding of documentary photography was more a complex. For this sophisticated, jazz-age intellectual, there was nothing simple about a photographic document.

“Documentary had come to mean two things. It means that it was delivering the truth, and that it was a social agent, it was gonna make life better for everybody. Of course Evans hated both of these ideas. And the reason why he kept insisting on calling it documentary style or documentary aesthetic was precisely to make the point that it just looks like the facts, it isn"t objective.”

When Evans photographed the Burroughs" house, the complexities and contradictions of this documentary style were revealed. Evans didn"t simply record what was in front of him. He rearranged the scene to minimize the squalor, elevating simple objects into iconic symbols of domesticity. And as he worked, the photograph crossed the line from document into artwork. The writer James Agee, who was with Evans when the picture was taken, provides a sidelight on the artifice behind this seemingly artless image.

“I think the most, one of the most stunning quotes in all of Agee"s work is when he says that the woman of this household told him, "I hate this house so bad! It seems like there ain"t nothing I can do to make it pretty." And that to me stands in great contrast to Evans"s work inside that cabin on one day when he did indeed make things achieve a kind of clarity and simplicity and beauty that he thought was best representative of American life.”

But though Evans readily molded reality to fit his personal vision, he couldn"t make that vision conform to the propaganda requirements of the FSA. In 1937, he was sacked.

Vocabulary:

jazz-age: 爵士乐时代

aesthetic: Aesthetic is used to talk about beauty or art, and people"s appreciation of beautiful things.

                From an aesthetic point of view, it"s a nice design.

squalor: You can refer to very dirty, unpleasant conditions as squalor.

             He was out of work and living in squalor.

artifice: a clever trick or something intended to deceive

            He displayed a great deal of artifice in decorating his new house.

ain"t: People sometimes use ain"t instead of `am not", `aren"t", ‘isn’t’, ‘haven"t", and `hasn"t". Some people consider this use to be non-standard
