Don McCullin: The Stillness of Life
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 січ 2020
- At home in Somerset, Sir Don McCullin CBE talks about photographing the landscape ahead of his exhibition ‘The Stillness of Life’ at Hauser & Wirth Somerset. This personal survey of over 70 landscape photographs includes scenes across the United Kingdom, Europe and further afield, revealing the photographer’s innermost feelings through powerful compositions of wild heavens, haunting vistas and meditative still lifes.
Photographer Don McCullin has spent the last six decades traveling to remote locations and witnessing harrowing scenes of conflict and destruction. Often referring to the British countryside as his greatest salvation, McCullin demonstrates the full mastery of his medium with stark black and white images resonating with human emotion.
‘Don McCullin. The Stillness of Life’ is on view at Hauser & Wirth Somerset 25 January - 4 May 2020, following McCullin’s major retrospective at Tate Britain in 2019, traveling to Tate Liverpool in June 2020.

Of all the men, the bravest is the one who passes the history to a living man's ears.
Moving, I think that's the word I want to use to describe Sir Don McCullin's images, whether of the chaos of war, or the stillness of nature they are just moving. The mark of a truly great photographer, you can't look away.
Wow what an incredible video. I would love to spend a day with that gentleman
Absolutely fantastic quote: “I want to disturb people but I want to please them at the same time me.”
Of all the people who receive knighthoods, this man is one of the very few who actually deserve it.
Agree. So few deserve it, but this man is just incredible really and so humble.
I’m pretty sure he is a Sir
100% correct-he is a genius.
Just extraordinarily beautiful and moving images, just finishing his autobiography and amazed and delighted to see him still at it and looking so together
My favourite photographer - what images!
That is an outstanding video.
Photographs am crap at it. Had the pleasure to meet him. Lovely Art in Itself.
I pleasure to watch
He is a true legend❤
He's amazing man, his son Alex looks just like him. I love every picture he's ever taken and shared with us all!!
3.27. Stunning. As all of them.
That one is just astounding, yes.
I love the way he still uses old film cameras. There is a gritty quality to his black and white images that you don't get with digital.
Film rules, screw digital
He doesn't, he's embraced digital - ua-cam.com/users/results?search_query=don+mucullin+digital 😂
@@nickfanzo Spoken like a true hipster 👍🏻😅
@@DaveBowman I’m 40, am I still in hipster age?
@@nickfanzo Probably borderline. Depends on whether you dress like someone out of Peaky Blinders, wear shoes without socks and started with digital but then moved to film because you think it looks cooler 😅
A real master of his art.wonderful thank you!
True sage and inspiration.
Music is Don't go by Chris Coleman
A legend
One of the few worlds greats.
Excelente!!!!
This video has changed me
Amazing
The best
Loved it
It took YT a year, but here it is. Quality. Sanity. Beauty and truth. Rare, rare commodities.
I read somewhere once, from a photographer that I admired back in the early eighties, that the 50mm equates most closely to how we see with a our natural gaze, and pretty much stuck with my 50mm on Nikons. It taught me to get close in, or choose my shot very very carefully. In those days I'd travel around the world cheaply (twice), and shoot maybe 1 roll of Kodachrome or Fujichrome a month, 8 roll trips, living dirt cheap. Working here and there. ONE ROLL A MONTH! I worked as a press photographer for a while, and knew my way around the darkroom, knew my papers, my film speeds. Haven't processed a print since 1983. But I will say, I get huge pleasure looking at my old work - and the limited number of photos only adds to that. Volume makes cheap.
I feel you
WoW !! Sir DON ! I must get out with MY Mamiya Press Super 23 camera similar to yours when i can on one of my 'LockDown' Walks on land at back of the Brentwood BT Building where i do 'Landscape Photography' -- maybe one day YOU could come to BRENTWOOD here in darkest ESSEX and go out with me ( Socially DISTANCED ! ) Ha Ha !
He did the photos on the film Blow up and the 1968 Beatles photos with a crowd in a London park. Amazing.
In the top 5 worlds best.
One man one... Journey *
Great master, great landscapes. I wanted to shoot my video about album "The Landscape", but I didn't get permission. Good to have such great videos
Amazing! does anyone know the name of that camera?
Mamiya Press (Universal)
The pond could be a dew pond.
Not having people spend only half a second on your picture is a luxury nowadays. Picture galleries are ignored by the vast majority of people, magazines have disappeared. Social media and 'likes' rule. Sorry to say.
Wim Wenders, too, now regards photography as a thing of the past. “It’s not just the meaning of the image that has changed - the act of looking does not have the same meaning. Now, it’s about showing, sending and maybe remembering. It is no longer essentially about the image. The image for me was always linked to the idea of uniqueness, to a frame and to composition. You produced something that was, in itself, a singular moment. As such, it had a certain sacredness. That whole notion is gone.”
Film rules #filmisnotdead
The EGO on this man! “Look at the sky, it looks like one of my paintings” no no no my friend your painting looks like the sky. Delusional!!!
