Virtual Essay


I admire the work of Robert and André Kertesz. Both of the photographers have done a great work in their life. The pictures they shoot not only show the beauty but there is a deep message in them.  Their photographers explain the original message in them. The reason why i choose these photographers below is because they have a great connection which leads to a valuable experience to me. There are many reflections that reflect their pictures deeply (Beauty, anger, surprise, hope, happiness are the few things that attracts one automatically. The work done by both of them have been shown in many countries like the Fraenkel gallery in san Francisco and the Cuba gallery. Robert work is known for the personal human struggle, personal exploration about the landscaper similarly André pictures were known for the personal exploration and originality.  In addition the work done by them can be found in New York, France Hungary, San Francisco.

Picture 1(b)

The amazing photographs showing beauty. That captures one interest in them immediately with deep thoughts about the real beauty of the nature. The first picture photographed by Robert Adams that tells about the leaves on the trees appear perforated, the precise cause of which is unknown. The artist likens the particular pattern of erosion on each leaf to hieroglyphics, reading in them a unique “calligraphy of disaster. And the second picture that is the reality of calligraphy of disaster.

This inimitable style gives the artist their own identity. Picture second (a) photographed by Robert Adams that gives real feeling of nature. And the second (b) gives the same feeling of nature.  Picture second (b) is an influence of picture second (a) as they both have the reflection of the cloud in the water and the alone boat in the sea.

Picture 3(b)


The picture above by André kertesz is most simple pictures ever. Both shows the same thing but with the different effects on them. Picture third (a) with a fork on a plate. Secondly, the other picture third (b) that shows the reflection of the fork on the table. Kertesz works are known for their simplicity everything around us can be a piece of art.

Picture 4(a)

Picture 4(b)


The picture forth (a) photography of western landscapes always includes evidence of the heavy hand of man and many would not call it "beautiful." Robert says that Nevertheless, his statement about beauty is very compelling and highlights the ambiguity associated with the word itself. Similarly the second picture tells about the same western landscape with the beautiful surrounding of people having fun in the water.



Picture 5(a)
Picture5(b)


There are different ways of capturing the pictures that gives the feeling about them. For example we have in picture fifth (a) a women lying on the ground looking at the sky and thinking about something. Which is exactly can be seen in the second picture that explains the same message about it. The pictures usually have the same meaning in them that makes one understand deeply.
