Rückblick 2019

Rückblick 2019 - Blog-Beitrag von Fotograf Martin Schweitzer / 02.01.2020 13:26

Mein fotografisches Highlight fand schon recht Früh im letzten Jahr statt. Es war die Fotoreise nach Kuba mit vielen nicht nur fotografischen Erlebnissen. Es gehörten auch Besuche bei der Bevölkerung dazu, die Dank kleiner Reisegruppe (4 Männer und eine Frau) recht übersichtlich war. So konnte ich auch das Leben der Stadtbevölkerung in Havanna sowie die der Landbevölkerung kennenlernen. Noch fahren die alten Autos umher und von der einen oder anderen Mauer sind noch Porträts von Che zu sehen. Manchmal auch recht eigenartig dargestellt.

Auch der Besuch einer Boxschule in Havanna gehörte mit dazu.

‘When light is reflected on black, it transforms and transmutes it. It opens up a mental field all of its own.’

– Pierre Soulages

There’s a line in one of Haruki Murakami’s novels where the sky grows darker, one stroke at a time, into deeper shades of night. Whilst wandering the streets in the night air, I connect to it all – the night pulse, from the stars, city lights to other souls who inhabit the city after dark. The shades of night are like entire universes to me.

When you shoot a celebrity and you don’t know it

When you shoot a celebrity and you don't know it - Blog-Beitrag von Fotograf Ralf Scherer / 20.06.2019 03:37

In 2016 I shot this photo in Madrid. My friend Michael and I walked across an old vintage market. A market full of vintage stuff. We saw a lot of old vinyl records. My personel focus was on the people there. Always looking for some special and uniqe humans. Then I saw him. I waited till he noticed me. In this moment his left hand made this gesture. What a uniqe guy. I love it when people have enough self-confidence and express themselves. It is not easy today and very rare because we are all adjusted. I think someone like him wants to be seen. That’s why I had no problem shooting the photo. 

I did not know that he was well known in Madrid. Willem Pieters the owner of the gallery De Rivier where I exhibit my work last year told me, his friend was the neighbor of the guy on the picture. His name is Paco Clavel. He is a singer and one of the biggest record collectors from Madrid.

Sometimes the world is a small place.
