art photography

Applications:

The word art for me is a set of personal  feelings, emotions and thoughts.
Art includes many different way how to externalize what you feel, can be music,
painting, acting, making a sculpture and many others.
Art can also change very easly and  in any moment, because all the external factors may effect
our perceptions and then our art can be demostrated in a specific way.
The first impression i had  looking at some Esteban Pastorino Diaz pictures was, that those
pictures were made in a wrong way, of course is my lack of experience and familiarity with
this kind of pictures that brought me to this opinion.







Personally i think that Esteban Pastorino Diaz in his pictures is trying to focus on specific building or open space, leaving the rest out of focus probably because anyone else can imagine what is around.
I also think, looking at some pictures, that looks like it's all fake, like miniature or a computer manipulation. That's the beauty of art, in this case the picture is the same but anyone can see different things, have different feeling or opinion.

Alejandro Chaskielberg is another argentinian, award winning art photographer. 
Many of his pictures have water in them,(Parana river), people and natural light.
I think he is trying to emphasize about the relation between people and nature, very close to documentary pictures, and strong colours giving a feeling of fiction.
In his pictures also the perception af space and natural light is changed  and the appearance is very peaceful and calm.







Context:


Art photography can be found most of the times in art gallery, lately art photography is also used for pubblicity.
Personally an art gallery is a "empty" and "cold" place where the pictures and all the others forms of art can express themselfs without any distraction for the people.
The lights around are very important, because the view is one of the most important aspect of a person who goes to a art gallery.
Personally i don't see a photo within a frame, because it comes from a camera, but a paint must be within a frame, because the frame complete it, and is way more creative.
