influences, we all have


Arriving at the weekend and curious, this network of networks, and tried to be a bit informed about what happens to the world of photography, I have been visiting the page Photoespaña, has been then when I had a moment of reflection, cultivating that came throughout the day, about how much, we make influences. This is not to disparage anyone's work is just an idea to take blueprints and on time today, I've seen some interesting images. 

"Bird Woman"
Joel Peter Witkin
"Violin of Ingres"
Man Ray
To continue the line of the previous publication, return on Witkin's images, the author of which I have spoken before and which, it might be somewhat less influenced by other works. But if we look closely at some of the images we can see how the different influences have also marked some of these photographs, always with the personal touch of shots taken by Witkin, but this image bird Women such, we can see a clear influence of the photograph taken by Man Ray in 1924 Violin of Ingres.

"The stairs" Aleksandr Ródchenko


For me all influence is positive, and somewhat encouraging, because as I said in previous lines, we are all influenced, that is why my visit to the portfolio, the photographer Carlos Pineda, I found very interesting to meet with a clear picture influence of Russian constructivism, more specifically with images of Rodchenko, and this is something that has raised a doubt be the art of photography or different from the rest of society, which cyclically, repeated again and again same patterns, or conversely, can be a creative force, which even aware of the achievements, to put aside internal disputes and continue to advance
