Hans Aarsman on Garry Winogrand’s Rattle
Hans Aarsman wrote about Garry Winogrand, and also created a fantastic, expressionistic monologue about the chaos he recognizes in his photographic works.
You can download the monologue on this page in English and Dutch. The links are sort of hidden. Hoover the mouse under the text “ARCHIEF”, where you see a large faint “X”. I think the original thumbnail has disappeared. The monologue is called Ruis in Dutch and Rattle in English. Rattle, I can imagine, is the noise in the streets, but I do not understand Ruis (noise, static). The monologue reads like a train-of-thought rattle. Very much how like Winogrand talked in a very Rattly manner.
Listen to this except:

All Things Are Photographable
The documentary All Things Are Photographable about Garry Winogrand is mandatory yet enjoyable homework for every (street) photographer (ignore the sometimes soggy commentary). You can view this film by Sasha Waters Freyer for free here.

Deborah Turbeville in FOAM; masterpieces with tape and pins
A few months ago, I bought Deborah Turbeville: Photocollage, which presents Turbeville’s collage work. It is probably the best photobook of 2023.
Huis Marseille has created a great exposition of her work, and I had a look at it today.
Deborah Turbeville was an influential American fashion photographer known for her unconventional and avant-garde style. Turbeville’s unconventional career spanned both commercial fashion work and the art world. Her work is often dreamy, mysterious, almost surrealist, and ambiguous.
Photo movies
I (re)started making picture movies from my photo projects. I publish them on my YouTube channel. It’s a kind of slide show, but I’m trying to make a bit more of it and augment pictures with some video I made during the photo shoots.
I started this before with low success but now decided to take this more systematically. Nobody seems to exhibit his photography products like this, at least not so systematically. The first new set I created during the Scotland trip. Created a separate playlist for this trip.
This weekend, I created a video using pictures I took during a business trip to New York City and upstate New York.
And I have a large backlog of similar trips. Having fun with this.

Glasgow Central, in pictures
I almost forgot to look up to get a good look at how this light could fall so beautifully into the hall of Glasgow Central station.
