IS KEVIN SAINT GREY THE MICHAEL KENNA OF ARCHITECTURE PHOTOGRAPHY?

Whoever is interested in Photography in general, and in landscape photography in particular, is familiar with Michael Kenna's work, and, in fact, it's impossible not to. The ethernal dawn and sunset, long exposed shots, are what made him so famous and distinguished beyond the contemporary photography realm. It was more recently, whan I was researching about the english photographer's work, that I stumbled upon another very unique portfolio: Kevin Saint Grey's. Kevin Saint Grey is a (mostly) fine art film photographer with an unique minimalist style. He shoots mostly landscape and architecture, and his work distinguishes itself for the serendipity of black and white, "humanless" and silent scenarios.

OLAFUR ELIASSON | Your Chance Encounter, slow motion shadows

Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson presents his work called ‘Your Chance Encounter’.

The creation of a space in which to question our presence within this world. Source: CubeMe

David Hockney, OM, CH, RA, is an English painter, draughtsman, printmaker, stage designer and photographer, who is based in Bridlington, Yorkshire and Kensington, London.An important contributor to the Pop art movement of the 1960s, he is considered one of the most influential British artists of the twentieth century.David Hockney has also worked with photography, or, more precisely, photocollage. Using varying numbers of small Polaroid snaps or photolab-prints of a single subject Hockney arranged a patchwork to make a composite image. One of his first photomontages was of his mother. Because these photographs are taken from different perspectives and at slightly different times, the result is work that has an affinity with Cubism, which was one of Hockney’s major aims – discussing the way human vision works. Some of these pieces arelandscapes such as Pearblossom H...
