Terry RICHARDSON: Self-Portrait

Terry Richardson: Self-Portrait, ca. 2000

"You can’t give your photograph soul with technique. I want my photos to be fresh and urgent. A good photograph should be a call to arms. It should say, ‘Fucking now. The time is ripe. Come on.’ - Terry Richardson


"Richardson, like any predator, is a powerful individual who manipulates and victimizes the weak. When they speak out against him, people try to silence them." - Jezebel

Ellen von Unwerth: Monica Bellucci

"Technique undoubtedly helps make photography magical, but I prefer to work with atmosphere. I think that the obsession with technique is a male thing. Boy's toys. They love playing... but once you've perfected something you have to start searching for a new toy. I would rather search for a new model or location." - Ellen von Unwerth

Alfred EISENSTAEDT: George Bernard Shaw

Alfred Eisenstaedt: George Bernard Shaw, 1932

"In 1932, I traveled to London hoping to photograph George Bernard Shaw. People told me he was very difficult and inaccessible, but I was also told that he was a vegetarian. So I bought a bunch of bananas and sent these, together with a portfolio of my photographs, to his home at Whitehall Court. Two days later I was asked to visit him. He looked through my photographs and said, 'You don't have to make me pose, I am a photographer myself." - Alfred Eisenstaedt
