Thanks for watching - if you like this video, remember to share it with your friends!
My name is Ted Forbes and I make videos about photography. I’ve been making photographs most of my life and I have a tremendously deep passion for photography that I want to share with you on UA-cam.
The Art of Photography is my channel and I produce photography videos to provide a 360 degree look into the world of making images. We all want to get better so lets do this together!
I make videos covering famous photographers, photography techniques, composition, the history of photography and much more.
I also have a strong community of photographers who watch the show and we frequently do social media challenges for photographers to submit their own work. I feature the best and most interesting on the show when we do these so come check it out and get involved! - Наука та технологія
It is so important to hear what Sue Canterbury revealed about Penn at the end of the video. I didn't know Penn was also an engineer, who combated heating problem while shooting with the large format camera. This is so awesome to know. I love Irving Penn's photography even more now. Thank you so much for this wonderful collaboration.
Sue is an excellent speaker, hope to hear her again in the future!
All roads to Fashion Photography start with Mr. Penn. He has influenced every major photographer I can think of. He is the king of kings. Thanks for this video!
You and Sue are teachers after all! Thanks!
Videos like this helps people like me to see and understand the work show in the museums all over the world...
Thank you Ted & Sue Canterbury, for a wonderful insightful vid on a great artist. Bravo!
You’ve overdone it Ted. I thought that the last video on Irving Penn was all that we had, but you came up wit a ‘real tour’ as asked. How can I tank you for responding to my inquest?
Thank Sue for taking much of her time for us to appreciate the exhibit. I learn a lot here. Mr. Penn was more of an experimenter than I first thought. His work will never cease to amaze me.
I like the more relaxed feel of this video, where we paused on some photo essentials to learn about Irving’s evolution in time. Nobody was there to distract us; we were the public.
Great work Ted and thanks again!
Yet another lovely documentary. Thank you
Thank you so much for this view of Irving Penn, and also to Sue Canterbury for her vast knowledge of this great photographer.
There is a big thank you to you for putting this altogether ,I've been watching your channel for a few years now and the vast subject of photography is covered from one end to the other, so from myself here in the UK well done and keep up the good work.
Regards Selwyn
Thanks again Ted, and thanks to Sue for the Virtual Tour. Again, very inspiring and though provoking. The Spirit of "I think I can do that" feeds on these topics you are creating. Prost!!
I’m just discovering the knowledge and experiences available on UA-cam and this is spectacular. I was following a thread from Annie Leibovitz and ended up here.
thanks sue it was good of you to give up your time wish I was there!
That skull photo is astounding and extraordinarily executed. Very inspiring Ted
This also highlight the importance of curators. This big artists, supported by people that actually know stuff look very different from just have "the right politics and be good at marketing" ones. Both are valuable as cultural phenomena but some truly add bumps and pushes to the arts they touch.
Thanks for another great video. I love how you keep your viewing audience informed of all the great photographers that are well known and not so well known. It's like getting a box of chocolates that you enjoy, and others flavors that you discover that you enjoy as well.
Thanks.
Waaaay too short. So good to listen to the detail of how how great photographers worked and thought. Thanks for bringing this.
Saw the show when it was in Washington, DC a few months ago! Thanks for sharing.
Superb! I really enjoy your channel. Thank you!!!
I am not half way through the video and all of those pictures are just incredible. Fantastic video!
This was an incredibly enjoyable video to watch. I wish I lived closer so I could see that exhibition. There are no good museums for photography in South Carolina. Atleast not that I am aware of.
fantastic video, Ted. Your channel just keeps getting better and better.
This is really great. It's especially interesting after I just watched the Vivian Maier video from a while back where one of Ted's main complaint with the so called curators are really just amateurs.
And you can really see the differences here. Sue is painfully obviously very knowledgable about Irvin Penn. There are many details about Irvin, about his methods, thoughts, art, history.
Although it is a bit unfair since not much information about Vivian exists at all, but I think people should have the decency to admit that we do not have enough knowledge to truly curate.
Once again, thank you Ted and Sue for the great experience! I've already been back once to study the works more closely. Amazing exhibition.
Wonderful video... Interesting to hear of how the shots came to be. How Penn worked from Sue Canterbury. Keep up the great work Ted.
Thanks for bringing us along!
really enjoyed this video, what a great mini tour of such legendary images!
Cool as usual. Keep it up. Thanks.
Thank you, Sue and thank you, Ted for bringing the exhibit and your knowledge of Irving Penn to us in UA-cam land. :) I always look forward to your videos. Great work!!
VERY, VERY COOL! Thank you!
This is an amazing video one of my favorite ones Ted great knowledge from the curator
I love your channel, thank you !
What an inspiration! Thank you Ted and Sue!
Great stuff! Thank you so much for sharing!
Great video! Thank you Sue and Ted. I have a new appreciation for Penn, Sue talked about things I never knew about him and some of his processes, super interesting. Would love to see the full 30 mins you guys spoke 🤓 (just nerding out). Thanks again Ted for bringing us such great content.
Amazing! Thank you so much for sharing Ted!
I went to DMA to see the exposition because of this video. Thanks.
very interesting! Well done as always
I didn't know Irving Penn shot 12x20 Banquet cameras! There are a few on ebay every so often. Interesting to need a heat transfer tube for the bellows too. I've seen a few view cameras that have double bellows.
Another great video.
That was so interesting, thanks Sue, thanks Ted. :)
It is an amazing exhibit. I'm so glad I got to attend the meetup. I'm still thinking about it and I'm going back soon to look at his work some more. Thanks Ted!
Terrific video Ted. As usual for you and your great work. RS Canada
That was super interesting!
Ted, this as well as all your videos is fantastic! Irving Penn is amazing. oh and btw I would watch a 30 min video if you posted it. Thanks for all the great stuff.
super interesting ! Thanks !
Very interesting talk 👌
Brilliant.
Irving Penn wanted to photograph my mother when she
was doing layout and design at Vogue during WW2
He was her boss.
She declined saying she was too busy.
Excellent video! Ted at some point would you consider a video outlining the dos and don'ts of framing and matting prints for exhibition? I noticed frames and matts in this video are alike. The presentation of my images is a struggle for me and I'm sure other. Thanks Ted, keep up the great work.
I would love to see the museum myself! And I would love to see the operation of the double bellows ca,era, now that my Mamiya C220 has one, it has to be interesting to ascertain the correct exposure for this camera!
For still life we used double and triple bellows for macro repro often. With Sinar it was as easy as sliding a standard frame on the mono rail and adding a bellows.
Thank you!
More more more!
Awesome
Thanks Ted!
gorgeous
Thank you for the vid!! How was Irving being able to shoot micro with this big view camera? I could do 1:1 on all my view cameras... but these cigarettes are more enlarged then 1:1. Do you think I need a bigger longer bellows?
Thank you
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks again for hosting it was more than worth the trip from Calgary! If anyone from the meetup is reading this I'd love to connect, I'm on most all social media as @hallsemporium
+Hall's Emporium Just visited your You Tube channel and viewed your filmed visit of the Dallas Museum and Irving Penn's exhibit. A nice complement to Ted's video. We get to see more of the exhibited artworks and I thank you for it.
change of music.... good call
Ted, what IS art?
+Sebastian Atkinstall If you don’t mind, I would like to answer that from my point of view, because I’ve asked myself that same question about ART for a long time and how it applies to PHOTOGRAPHY.
ART according to the Webster's dictionary is something that is created with imagination and skill and that is beautiful or that expresses important ideas or feelings.
When thinking of art many people think of paintings, sculptures, and architecture, but they often leave out other creative works such as music and photography.
Music is definitely an art but since it’s so integrated in our daily life, we often take it for granted.
But many might ask, where does photography fit into ART? Many will claim that there’s nothing IMAGINATIVE there, it’s there for all of us to see. Maybe, but not everyone sees what’s there to capture ‘artistically’ (or meaningfully). Some people call this the ‘photographic eye’.
If photography is done with the same objectives as what defines ART, i.e. using one skills to express important ideas and feelings, one should not be that far apart from its artful objective. The resulting photograph should tell you if you reach or not that success.
Let’s be fair, there are skills involved in photography. Many will speak of the technical ones such as the camera settings to express what you wish to emphasize. But there is so much more. The starting point being what you choose to photograph and what you want it to express. Subjects are there under our eyes but many fail to see them.
Once you selected your subject matter, you will opt to include and exclude what will appear in the frame. This first step is very important in the decision making. You are your own judge, you choose you composition, the perspective, the way you want to emphasize the focus point, and above all you control the light that will paint your image.
And once that done, there are more skills involved. There are skills involved in creating prints from film or editing the digital capture. Once again, it’s up to you to decide what works best.
We must beware that ART is by no means a popularity contest. If it becomes one, then there may result an artistic movement which ain't so bad. But history tells us that the artists that we look back at, are the creative ones, those who worked against the current trends (in that that moment in time).
That said, not everybody will conclude that the resulting image is ART. By that I respond, that not everyone likes the same music, the same paintings, the same artworks; But as long as there is an ‘AUDIENCE’, that there are people that admire or relate to the image, then a goal is reached.
Please do a few more like this video. Some of us...maybe more than you think, really miss the book reviews, the photographer profiles, the rant and tips videos. Ted Forbes circa 2016 and before. I respect why you are doing the camera reviews but you promised you wouldn't be all equipment in one of your videos...yet....the magic that sets you apart from the others has been dormant for awhile. If possible, wake up a little of that magic...more artistry and less equipment please. Those videos made your page special!
Everything Ted touches turns to gold ! RS
Fre'nel. Apologies for being nerdy but 'Fresnel' is so out of character with this knowledgeable presentation.
