About this Item

Description:

Una nota in italiano e inglese e 14 fotografie in bianco e nero di Dorothy Bohm. Nota biografica. A cura della Galleria Il Diaframma e della libreria dell'immagine di "Il Diaframma Fotografia Italiana" di Milano . 16mo (cm 10x10). pp. 16. . Ottimo (Fine). . . . "Ho fotografato Londra dal 1970 in poi, cercando di mostrare la gente e l'atmosfera di questa città unica, come la conosco dopo esservi vissuta per 25 anni. Il suo humour, la sua solitudine, i suoi momenti di bellezza nella sua luce sempre cangiante. Ho cercato di riprendere la varietà affascinante di questa città. Ma la natura e i soggetti delle mie fotografie sono un'interpretazione personale. Spero che l'obiettivo non sia solo un'estensione dei miei occhi, ma che possa proiettare anche i miei sentimenti per Londra" (D. Bohm). Nata a Kaliningrad nel 1924, cresciuta con tata e governante, appartenente ad una ricca e colta famiglia ebrea, Dorothy Bohm dovette abbandonare questa vita comoda quando suo padre la spedì in collegio in Inghilterra al fine di evitare i rastrellamenti di Hitler. Se fosse rimasta, sarebbe inevitabilmente scomparsa, come toccò ai suoi genitori e a sua sorella minore. Di cui non ebbe più notizie per 20 anni. Allo scoppio della guerra si spostò a Manchester per studiare fotografia, sostenendosi autonomamente non potendo più contare sui fondi della famiglia. Cominciò a viaggiare col suo giovane marito che la incoraggiava a fotografare per le strade di tutto il mondo: Parigi, Spagna, Israele, Grecia, America e Sud Africa. La sua fotografia documentaria all'inizio era esclusivamente in bianco e nero. Nel 1969 la sua reputazione era già così solida che tenne la sua prima mostra a fianco del fotografo di guerra Don McCullin all'ICA di Londra. La parete del fotografo mostrava immagini di guerra, quella di Bohm scatti di pace. Nel 1971 fondò la Photographers Gallery con Sue Davies contro il parere di tutti coloro che la sconsigliarono. Invece fu un grande successo fin da subito. Nel 1980, alle soglie dei 60 anni, ha cominciato ad usare il colore per la prima volta e il suo lavoro ha virato decisamente verso l'astrazione. Legatura con punto metallico (stapled binding). Seller Inventory # 0000000205137
