앙리 카르티에-브레송 사진 명언

 

 

 

  사진을 찍으면서 또는 찍고 난 후 한번쯤 생각해 볼만한 앙리 카르티에 브레송의 사진 명언입니다. " 지나간 것은 찍지 못한다"라는 그의 말이 사실 단순하게도 들리지만 어쩌면 정말로 단순한 것이 가장 중요한 것이라 하겠습니다. 앙리 카르티에 브레송이 말한 내용들을 모두 항상 기억할 수는 없지만 그래도 찍다가 몇몇 구절을 생각할 수 있다면 사진을 촬영할 때 좋은 지침이 되리라 봅니다.

 

Henri Cartier-Bresson Quotes

‘To me, photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event as well as of a precise organization of forms that give that event its proper expression.’

 

To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.

In photography, the smallest thing can be a great subject. The little, human detail can become a Leitmotiv.

 

We photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing, and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth can make them come back again. We cannot develop and print a memory.

 

The creative act lasts but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box.

 

The photograph itself doesn't interest me. I want only to capture a minute part of reality.

 

Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again.

Actually, I'm not all that interested in the subject of photography. Once the picture is in the box, I'm not all that interested in what happens next. Hunters, after all, aren't cooks.

 

To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. It is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same axis.

 

Photography is an immediate reaction, drawing is a meditation.

 

Memory is very important, the memory of each photo taken, flowing at the same speed as the event. During the work, you have to be sure that you haven't left any holes, that you've captured everything, because afterwards it will be too late.

 

The most difficult thing for me is a portrait. You have to try and put your camera between the skin of a person and his shirt.

 

Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick.

 

Above all, I craved to seize the whole essence, in the confines of one single photograph, of some situation that was in the process of unrolling itself before my eyes.

 

During the work, you have to be sure that you haven't left any holes, that you've captured everything, because afterwards it will be too late.
