Go as far as the way
----- Comment Zhao Liwen's Leven is a remarkable number of Shaanxi photography. There are two intermittent, Ruoyouruowu can comb the main line.
one is a collection of loose, the origin is a beautiful, romantic pursuit of the freedom of the visual art collection of the radius of each other unreasonable complain, fighting each other. One is a collection of compact, is based on the local, ongoing political backlash, continued to promote its core photography revolution, with some basic features of photographic genres, the mid-1980s to the development and expansion of the late 1990s, years of silence before and after the turn of the century, near extinction in 2005, has recovered after the potential. Shaanxi both models photographers were constantly formatting, type, flat. Little alternative out of these two models, Zhao Liwen is such a lucky person.
1968 born Zhao Liwen, picked up a camera at the age of 16, kept open by his father Zhao Xiuhua, photographer Pankow attunement. Over 42-year-old living in his little time within the system, most of the time living in the camera, claiming to be a freelance writer and art workers. Strictly speaking, Zhao Liwen 20 years of photographic practice, more affected by the Shaanxi groups, which groups of natural and Pankow is a member of Shaanxi are stakeholders, but more understanding of his own photography, tend to record . However, very fortunately, he has not been Shaanxi group
cite two cases. November 2009 Zhao Liwen published a attention and records, of which a considerable number of photos taken inside the room and the courtyard, in part by the photographer is Zhao Liwen a named friend. Shaanxi was shot mostly in local groups and folk, much of the city studied under image. We know that martial arts Hu, Hou Dengke, Qiu Xiaoming three joint film Are generally nameless, almost no home photography. Comparing the two records of Xi'an Zhao Liwen lot earlier, but seem to be more generous.
Also, the already available from the works of Zhao Liwen of view, there are a great many records of his subjectivity and the concept of color. For example, this group of Regression observed Zhao Liwen the 1980s, the 1990s image, this model is still to face the camera has always existed, the same strain. This means that there are very subjective, and very different style of Shaanxi groups.
Zhao Liwen fish like a photograph, in Shaanxi, terraced rice paddies in the landscape between the street wandering, seemed very awkward, very difficult, is very tricky, very comfortable. Because these clumsy, difficult, tricky, nice, 20 years later, many people are silent in Shaanxi photography, he surfaced in their own strength to strength, and more significant.
I know, Zhao Liwen shooting the group Yan Gang, together with. So they work between the content of the film is very repetitive and, of course, I also found between the observed and expression of their differences. Like the more advanced material and cultural community, people will reduce the difference between the physical level, the greater the difference in the spiritual level, as in today's information over the age of photographic subject matter less and less difference, and we can place More promising is the increasing differentiation of the same content, observation and performance differential.
Also, hermits practice the emphasis is on In Eastern cultures, there is everything to pursue a shortcut of the complex, so entangled in the pursuit of thousands of people a shortcut is to go the nearest road. So, we see a lot of text about photography, is teaching people how to find shortcuts, how to take shortcuts. In fact, this is the level of stay in operation, not about the road.
photography can be very important to the individual way of life, quality of life can also be made into a lucrative practice, but in the 21st century that these are outdated, but also luxury. Chinese culture has been a very strong cultural tradition of hermits, but also has been no respect for the cultural tradition of hermits. A hermit cultural traditions, is that thousands of years people have been Hermits have no respect for cultural traditions is to say, two thousand years of Chinese culture is Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism has always been a mix of culture, of which the talents were official For example, so-called
mean that Zhao Liwen very shot, Objective point of view, in the Red Zhongnanshan people in the escape, hundreds of years has been an endless stream. Quite a few of them really want to Hermitage, practice. And the moment, this group is still more than trend. Red Dust in the life of the great faith and between, there is always some old enmity, which need to eliminate long-term practice! And the only way to overhaul the way to go furthest, have forced ourselves into the ascetic rejection of all shortcuts.
However, Red is indeed difficult to block, photographers fear long and arduous journey. The lives of practitioners is because there are gaps, will require faith and fill, the photographer's life is because of the persistent need to go as far as road, watching the scenery all over the world people, so that inner and fulfilling! In this sense, Zhao Liwen's
For true artists, life seemed to have a big gap, always has been filled with dreams and passion. Paradigm is the closest any other person even if the expression of the nature of the image can not the master of your own life, you should stick to only allow images to make your life more exciting, more peaceful mind, to see this through the lens things in the world is more pure, dedicated to the world you find and experience only. From this perspective, form than content, stick to go beyond search. Individual expression and personal discovery as important, more important is the long held their own, Zhao Liwen has insisted for 20 years, in fact, is not enough, there is further to go.
(article published in the Xi'an eighties living according to the new wells are found, shock, I thought the eighties simply be called a sense of China's urban images He insisted for four consecutive years 1985-1989 the lens at all aspects of urban secular life, persistent focus on a theme to the point that actually has really rare exceptions, it can not be said to be a miracle. Photographs, though not the merits of the standard volume on the set, but placed in the eighties when the real world of photography in China to examine the background, we will understand and recognize ---- we are very concerned about the photographic film, related costs of supplies and even eighties, we begin with the Who? Moreover, Zhao Liwen of these photos in the framing, composition, instant control and so is a simple temperament, photographic technique and subject matter complement each other,Bailey UGG boots, and must not favor the kind of composition for the composition and the pursuit of art or intent to shoot up the formalism, This is different from many of the eighties for the United States requesting different images on the composition of those.
Annex 2:
the principle of heritage
Pankow
that was in the late 1980s, I , a friend of his son to Zhao to me and say that this baby love photography, so I Great I was 10 years old Zhao, Zhao Liwen my son than he is 10 years old, as my brother Zhao, Xiao Zhao as my big brother, which might be a the saying goes.
Zhao Liwen film for children and tenacity, to be able to eat hard, when they do not have much temptation, so heart so still down. He often came to me the newspaper, asking questions of quite eager to learn. Han Han looked at me he loved to laugh, most of the time is listening I say, Then the U.S. turned my The mid-80s, is what I am determined to be a good reporter's time, my idol is Eugene. Smith. Hu added that season along with martial arts, Houdeng Ke, who is Huan endure, I boldly advocated I own 70 late in the Painting of the muddy water once in several years, thanks to experienced martial arts, Laohou come across before, so I and testified against Levine went to shoot those flowers and plants.
either before or after the Cultural Revolution Cultural Revolution, Chinese photography is too far away from real life, not pretentious preaching is dry, fresh style and a living soul. I encourage people to shoot live Leven lens, this is for him to do, he smiled that Han Han is the best communication tool. This kid is very hard, patting patting, humble string together the daily life of children there to see the head. I found immediately to help highlight some of the group that he edited and published in my chair the See them drive greater results Gilman, a time to run around the streets in Xi'an. I told him, though you are not journalists, but you also have advantages. Reporters keep thinking the job done, there are articles every day drives in the back, hard to focus on one topic for a long time. And you could not Guanci, it is free and can focus on one topic for a long time, this is your challenge to the strengths of professional journalists.
positive publicity from the grand narrative (including general praise of the rivers, mountains) with the camera turned to the daily lives of ordinary people reflection, keen memory of secular per phase, in such a thought, the objectivity of the camera effectively 60-70 Age-specific rejection of the political themes, but also rejected the so-called art of hypocritical, and will make up for the photographer's artistic accomplishments and lack of cultural insight. Levine's film was very simple, not the lens play tricks, no tricky point of view of non-normal daily life. I believe that respect for the instincts coupled with the objectivity of photography is to guide the way the color works, especially the photographic record of the class. This means an important function of photography is to give evidence, when Levine is the best choice for simple peace and the daily lives of the people to testify in Xi'an. Years of change, everything is life and death, times than anyone else, Xi'an to see the last century's well Taipei, Levine can not bypass the photos. In a few decades, hundreds of years it may really have a few
but principled cultural relics.
example, the timing, the general view is to create time and appreciate the greater the distance of time more valuable. Many cultural relics to surprise them when the manufacturer, has already passed away, then appraise their own people. Today was also able to endure no cheering days? Furthermore, the specific manufacturing heritage is also very important time, and now the Chinese people to their work to the premise of shooting time, which confused the heritage of true information, worthy of attention. One of the characteristics of photography cutting time, and thus become part of the lens corresponding to the spatial and temporal evidence. To produce meaningful work that, in general, there are several ways a person or scene is a rare shot, because the rare and precious. One is original,bailey UGG boots, because the photographer's vision and remarkable strength. There is also a persistent attention to certain aspects. Leven is taking the latter path, the path from the requirements of speaking, the photographer can adhere to the maximum time span of the most important thing. Not two or three years, five or six years is not normal, a color or two decades, decades of unremitting shooting before into you. Quick success can only counterfeiting. Another example
the importance of heritage to carry more information of that era, the age can be as important or important events to testify. Leven value is 80 photos of the late and early 90's is the critical years of transition in China, and his work for that time daily life in Xi'an the people's memory of the details of the objective, became the entry point for people watching. This is a different place and painting, because painting is not the objective existence of a strong memory of the details of its decision and photography is far from female and male. Daily life is dull and magnificent things complementary situation of the times, so important does not mean that significant.
body ornamental value and photography. Photography skill and accomplishment there, this is the photographer to use effort and talent to pursue the things in today's fickle photographer for the quick success of many believers, body photography can be absorbed in pondering it? When we see the classic heritage feel the power of a gas field in awe to attract you to it, one factor is the ancient calm the mind, a way the ancients stubborn to be able to go black. This is the modern word that the
worse, there are rare, Wen rare. The problem is how to become a rare photo digital age? Xian Lee shot on the day of the camera has not spread in the community. Sweeping the streets are very public today, how do you use your terms to make it into the rare? Determine the times our eyes hidden in the dazzling of the Admiralty, a large LV.
Leven's a very good intuition, but also noted the character's personality and grasp of narrative plot, which is commendable for the performance of everyday life. Carpet bombing in the present picture of the situation, I can shoot him, Although in the world to see, what is far from how to make a film important, but there were also important topics for Zhao Liwen. Maybe this would prevent him to observe the object in depth, in-depth analysis of their own, after all, the documentary-style photography reported a group of people scratch too deep, and long-standing system of life is not to shoot well in Xi'an reported photography as usual, so ordinary people will choose to give up some time after shooting, to off is considered a rare. I wonder if he is no longer the subject comes down to subject matter, not directly by the subjects thought the use of these films, what would it be the result? I read with him and Peng Xiangjie caravan group photo taken, how he pulled his language with images from Peng?
current spiritual forces are submerged in the sea of goods, the poor scared all the temptations the Chinese people have cherished for the fascination. Moreover, also in crazy world, globalization, China to show the crazy side, to show the side of ignorance,UGG shoes, to show dead side. Must also show the wisdom of the side, to show our hearts are warm side. Living in such an environment, the temptation to joint traps, false coverage of real life. Photography gives us a lot of possible, currently we have developed nearly enough. Photography inspired many potential human potential, the Chinese developed more is not enough. In China, people have unconsciously into the beautiful photography of the track, when Gilman worthy of his love of photography the day, he used this book makes me happy.
1968 free photography was born in the ancient city of Xi'an, documentary photography in 1989, started to pay attention, mainly in the lower coverage of social,
attention to marginalized vulnerable groups, in recent years to capture the main theme of the city.
