  1. “And this was something that color would not add to. If we had had digital color 150 years ago I think we would have been doing all that. But it might not have been as clearly refined as it is in black and white. But that being said, I don’t know why anyone would go and purposely take black-and-white pictures today. I think the new grey field is color.”

  2. “On 04.20.11 David Niblock said: Thank you for this candid tribute, Charlotte. I know the news of Tim’s departure will be an enormous shock to everyone … even those, like me, who only knew him through his work. These days aren’t supposed to happen.”

  3. “Our small hope then is that through images and some accompanying words (definitely an edited version of this saga…) they will go someway to keep Japan and the people of Tohoku in the hearts and collective mind of the world.”

  6. “Rogovin photographed the silence. Left intact in their mystery those insular depths of the islands which are revealed to us in simple objects, in crystalline poetry, as if the little village were living under the water with legendary belfries next to anchors of mythological vessels. The great photographer immersed himself in the poetry of simplicity and came to the surface with the net full of clear fish and flowers of profundity.”

  7. “But the staged photograph had to wait for the faux film stills that Cindy Sherman began making in the 1970s to come into its own as a respected fine-art genre. Laurie Simmons, Gregory Crewdson and a host of other canny artificers of photographic fantasy followed. Thanks to them, it is now possible to view Rockwell’s photography not only as a means but also as an arresting end in itself. Rockwell must be rolling in his grave.”

  8. “"Charles seemed to be waving calmly at first, trying to be amicable, but then he looked worried. Camilla was visibly agitated. There were a couple of people taking pictures with their mobile phones, but I knew I was the only newspaper photographer around.”

  9. “We’re so afraid to look—we fear that looking is voyeuristic, that it’s exploitative, that it’s a cheap form of knowledge. Not-looking has been endowed with a kind of moral sanctity and intellectual respectability, which I don’t think it deserves.”

  10. “A few years ago, French photographer Sacha Goldberger found his 91-year-old Hungarian grandmother Frederika feeling lonely and depressed. To cheer her up, he suggested that they shoot a series of outrageous photographs in unusual costumes, poses, and locations. Grandma reluctantly agreed, but once they got rolling, she couldn't stop smiling.”
