Urban landscape photography documents urban life and cities. It started in the late 1800s when John Thomson photographed street life in London. There are several subfields of urban landscape photography including cityscape photography which captures the whole city, architectural photography which focuses on buildings, and street photography which documents people's lives in the city. While related to documentary photography, urban landscape photography does not chronicle historical events and focuses more on random images of the present rather than people's lives.

Minimalism
Minimalism was an American art movement that emerged in the 1950s and 1960s as a reaction to Abstract Expressionism and World War II. It emphasized extreme simplicity and minimal elements in works, often using basic geometric shapes, industrial materials, and primary colors without distractions of composition or themes, allowing viewers to experience the art more intensely. Key traits included geometric and non-representational forms, repetition, and the elimination of the artist's hand in the interest of objectivity and anonymity.
Photorealism
Photorealism is a style of art that uses hyper-realistic painting techniques to depict photographic images with great attention to detail and without interpretation or distortion. Key characteristics include paintings based on photographs of everyday subjects like diners and street scenes that appear extremely realistic. Artists like Chuck Close and Richard Estes are known for their large-scale portraits and street scenes painted with invisible brush strokes using tools like projectors and grids to precisely scale up details from photographs. Sculptors like Duane Hanson and John De Andrea also contributed to the photorealism movement by creating disturbingly lifelike sculptures of ordinary people.

What is documentary photography?
Documentary photography aims to document reality in an objective or subjective manner. Photographers started using photographs as evidence or documents to bring attention to social issues and reforms. While photojournalism in magazines from the 1920s-1960s aimed for objectivity, individual viewpoints also became important. Documentary photography has been used for social reform, to shock or create beautiful images showing the impacts of life, and to communicate both light-hearted and intimate perspectives. It includes genres like social documentary, photojournalism, and street photography.
Photorealism
Photorealism is a style of painting that depicts realistic imagery so precisely that it appears photographic. It originated in the late 1960s as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism. Photorealistic paintings are often very large, photo-accurate depictions of common objects, landscapes, and portraits created using techniques like projecting photographs onto canvases. Some criticize photorealism as merely copying photographs rather than creating art, while supporters argue it captures moments frozen in time. Early influential American photorealists included Richard Estes, Chuck Close, and Don Eddy, who painted cityscapes, portraits, and everyday objects respectively.
Photorealism
Photorealism was a movement in the late 1960s that involved replicating photographs in paintings and sculptures with such meticulous detail that the works were indistinguishable from the original subjects. It reacted against the spontaneity of Abstract Expressionism by emphasizing planning and realistic depictions. Key photorealists mentioned include Richard Estes, known for paintings of reflective city scenes; Chuck Close, who used a grid technique; sculptor Duane Hanson, who created hyperrealistic figures; and Don Eddy, whose work progressed from objects to juxtaposed images.
Presentation
Photorealism began in the late 1960s as a reaction to abstract art movements. It aimed to reclaim the value of imagery in art by using photographs and mechanical means to precisely replicate scenes and objects in paintings. Key photorealists discussed include Richard Estes, Chuck Close, Ralph Goings, and Duane Hanson. Their works captured frozen moments in time through highly detailed renditions of cityscapes, portraits, and everyday objects. While influenced by pop art, photorealism sought to elevate photographic images through technical mastery rather than critique popular culture.
Fine art photography
Fine art photography emerged as a reaction against photography's documentary uses and as a move towards emphasizing aesthetic form over social context. Key figures like Alfred Stieglitz promoted photography as an art focused on composition, tone, and using the gallery space to elevate photographs to an art status. Over time, fine art photography incorporated more genres and subjects while still emphasizing the formal qualities of an image.

Photo-Secession 1820-1930s
Pictorialism aimed to express feelings and engage the senses through photography focused on beauty rather than facts. Photographers like Alfred Stieglitz and Edward Steichen sought to make photography an art form. The Photo-Secession movement, founded by Stieglitz in 1902, had similar ideals but wanted the mechanical origins of photographs to be apparent. In the 1920s, the f/64 group emphasized the unique qualities of photography through sharp images and maximum depth-of-field, exemplified by Edward Weston's portraits and landscapes.

Yasuo kuniyoshi
Yasuo Kuniyoshi was a Japanese-American painter born in 1893 in Okayama, Japan who lived from 1906-1953 in the United States. He studied art in Los Angeles and New York and established himself as an internationally renowned painter and graphic artist by 1930. During World War II, he created war posters and radio scripts to support the U.S. war effort. His artwork explored his complex identity and experience of racism as a Japanese man in America. Key paintings include "I'm Tired" (1938) and "Somebody Tore My Poster" (1943).
Abstraction
This document discusses the history and development of abstraction in photography. It begins by explaining that abstraction emerged in the early 20th century as artists felt photography could represent reality better than painting. It then discusses influential abstract photographers like Moholy-Nagy and the Bauhaus school. Various techniques that produce abstract effects are covered, including camera angles, lighting, shutter speeds, photograms, and still life arrangements. The work of photographers Aaron Siskind and Ralph Eugene Meatyard is also summarized, focusing on their experimentation with abstraction.
Abstract expressionism[1] (1)
Abstract Expressionism was an American post-WWII art movement centered in New York City that focused on spontaneous, raw expression and large canvases to depict inner emotions and the subconscious. Key artists included Jackson Pollock, known for his drip paintings; Willem de Kooning who used gestural abstraction; and Mark Rothko whose color field paintings conveyed transcendental experiences through large areas of color without subjects. The movement sought to express universal feelings through new techniques arising from surrealism, abstractionism, and the influences of the Depression and World War II.
Leaflet
This exhibition features the abstract photography works of Edward Steichen, Francesca Woodman, and Tommy Nease. The title refers to how isolation is a major part of modern society, where people feel like unseen "wallflowers" in others' lives. Steichen was an influential early 20th century fashion photographer and museum director known for his moody black and white images. Woodman explored themes of gender equality and identity through her blurry nude self-portraits. Nease creates a ghostly mood through experimental techniques with exposure and sharpness. The curators hope the exhibition expresses the theme of isolation in different ways and that visitors enjoy and are thought-provoked by the works.
Pictorialism In Potography
Pictorialism was an international photographic movement from the late 19th to early 20th century that emphasized artistic expression and emotional response over straightforward documentation. Photographers would manipulate their images to create a mood or feeling rather than simply record a scene. Popular techniques included platinum printing for its tonal range and gum bichromate printing which allowed for a painterly style. Leading pictorialist photographers included Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Steichen, Clarence White, and Gertrude Käsebier who sought to use photography as a means of creative expression rather than just documentation.
Pictorialism power point
Pictorialism was one of the earliest and most influential photography movements that began in the 1880s and aimed to establish photography as a legitimate art form. Pictorialist photographers sought to distinguish their images from mere documentation by using dramatic compositions and subjects that conveyed a sense of fantasy or visual cohesion. They also manipulated the chemical development process similarly to how painters used their materials, applying techniques like brush strokes, soft focus, and dramatic lighting to achieve a painterly quality. This movement influenced the development of styles like impressionism and produced famous photographers including Alfred Stieglitz and Edward Steichen, helping to gain acceptance of photography as a serious artistic medium.
Aaron Siskind Presentation
Aaron Siskind was an American photographer born in 1903 in New York City. He began his career doing documentary photography but shifted in the 1940s to a more abstract, personal style of photography focused on textures and patterns in objects. By the 1950s, he had completely departed from documentary work and was making abstract photographs influenced by abstract expressionist painters like Franz Kline. Siskind is considered a pioneer in moving photography beyond simple documentation and representation and establishing it as a form of abstract artistic expression.
August Sander
August Sander (1876-1964) was a German photographer known for his systematic portraits of people from different classes and professions in early 20th century Germany. His most famous work, titled "People of the 20th Century," began in 1910 and aimed to categorize portraits of Germans according to their social and occupational backgrounds. While some viewed his portraits as documentary photography due to their objective style showing subjects in everyday clothing and settings, Sander saw his work as portraiture focused on allowing subjects' expressions and appearances to represent their origins. His meticulous and neutral photographic style set a standard for documentary portraiture.
The city in photography
The document discusses the history of photography of cities from the 19th century onward. It notes that early city photographs by Daguerre and Talbot kept the city at a distance but photographers started capturing street scenes and the lives of urban residents. Marville documented the transformation of Paris. Annan revealed poverty in Glasgow. Later photographers like Stieglitz idealized New York while others like Jacob Riis exposed poor conditions. Weegee captured crime scenes. Walker Evans and Bruce Davidson photographed subway passengers covertly, depicting urban loneliness. The city remained a complex subject for the camera to interpret.

I am NOT a photographer.
I am a Professor of Communication and visual communication or images forms a sub-text of my study.
Like Mr. Bean who said : I sit in the corner and look at paintings.
I look at photographs. What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment. You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.
Street Photography
This document summarizes an interactive session on World Photography Day with Prof. Aloke Kumar discussing the history and evolution of street photography. It provides examples of iconic street photographs from photographers like Louis Daguerre, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Doisneau, Ruth Orkin, Clyde Waddell, and Raghubir Singh documenting streets in cities like Paris, New York, Calcutta. Prof. Kumar discusses how street photography matured after World War 2 and highlights the work of photographers in capturing candid moments in public spaces.
Masters of Photography
This document profiles several influential photographers and their contributions to the field. It discusses Ansel Adams' development of landscape photography and the zone system. Matthew Brady documented the Civil War. Julia Margaret Cameron developed portraits with emotional depth rather than sharp detail. Alfred Stieglitz dedicated his life to establishing photography as a true art form. Dorothea Lange depicted rural life in the American South. Robert Frank captured everyday scenes in a raw, transparent style. Jerry Uelsmann pioneered composite, surreal images.
9 Henri Cartier Bresson
Cartier-Bresson was a pioneering French photojournalist and photographer known for developing street photography as an art form in the early 20th century. He helped popularize the style of candid, spontaneous photos capturing everyday life and "real" moments. His work emphasized composition and capturing the significance of an event in a fleeting moment, showing that even small human details and the everyday can be art.

Photography has evolved significantly since its invention in the 1820s. Early photographs used daguerreotypes and long exposure times, requiring subjects to remain still. Modern digital cameras resemble traditional cameras but use image sensors instead of film. Early photographs were not considered art but portrait and street photography by Julia Margaret Cameron, Alfred Stieglitz, and Henri Cartier-Bresson elevated the medium. Jacob Riis used flash photography to document poor living conditions and bring about social reform. Ansel Adams photographed the natural environment to promote conservation. Color photography, initially disdained in art, became more accepted following William Eggleston's 1976 MoMA exhibition. Contemporary artists like Susan Derges, Trevor Paglen, and Binh Dan
Mod lit minimalism
Minimalism focuses on reducing design to only necessary elements through simple geometric forms and eradication of authorship from artworks. Key artists during this time included Donald Judd, Frank Stella, and Carl Andre who sought to remove metaphors from art and have the meaning appear only on the surface. Minimalism was influenced by abstract expressionism but reacted against its complexity, instead using repetition of basic elements and bright colors.

12-24 - Modernism and the work of Paul Strand.pdf
This document provides an overview of modernist photography and focuses on the work of Paul Strand and Edward Weston. It discusses how modernist photography embraced a straight aesthetic using sharp focus and geometric forms. It introduces Paul Strand and Edward Weston as pioneering modernist photographers who rejected pictorialism in favor of documenting reality. It analyzes key works by each photographer and notes how they were both influenced by Alfred Stieglitz in developing their signature modernist styles.
Essay On History Of Photography
Photography began in 1827 when a French officer took the first photograph, though the exposure took eight hours; in 1839, Louis Daguerre invented a process allowing photographs to be reproduced on metal plates in just 30 minutes, revolutionizing the new language of photography which could capture and share moments in time. The document then discusses the history and evolution of photography from its early beginnings to modern digital photography, highlighting key inventors and technological advances that have increased the accessibility and applications of the medium over time.
Documentary overview
Documentary photography and photojournalism aim to chronicle significant historical events and tell stories about the human condition through truthful, objective, and candid images, often of people. Some of the most prominent documentary photographers mentioned include Matthew Brady who documented the Civil War, Jacob Riis who brought attention to impoverished conditions in New York City in the late 1800s, and Dorothea Lange who was known for her Depression era photojournalism for the Farm Security Administration. Henri Cartier-Bresson is considered the father of modern photojournalism for helping develop street photography style.
Photography: Garry winogrand
Garry Winogrand was born in 1928 in the Bronx, New York. He developed a habit of wandering city streets from a young age due to his family's crowded apartment. Winogrand studied photography in college and made photos throughout his life capturing everyday life and social realities in America. He took over 300,000 photos in his career but died in 1984 at age 56, leaving many photos unedited. Winogrand is known for his candid street photography style that depicted American life in the 1960s and caught odd coincidental moments between strangers.

- 14. Urban Landscape vs. Documentary Photography • Urban landscape photography is closely related to Documentary photography… but there are some differences. • It doesn't chronicle significant events that are historical in nature. • Its a little disorganized in that images of random cites, building and people are taken with no specific intent or knowledge of the persons life. • Tends to focus on the present.
