More quotes by Albert Renger-Patzsch
Let us... leave art to the artists, and let us try to use the medium of photography to create photographs that can endure because of their photographic qualities.
Albert Renger-Patzsch
There was a time when one looked over one's shoulder with an ironical smile at the photographer and when photography as a profession seemed almost invariably a target for ridicule. That time is now over.
Albert Renger-Patzsch
I'd like to briefly state the accomplishment that we expect from a photographer. He must make the person being photographed forget that he has eaten from the tree of knowledge.
Albert Renger-Patzsch
Technique does not need to be interpreted. It interprets itself. You have to choose the right objects and focus on them precisely and they will tell you their own stories.
Albert Renger-Patzsch
... modern life is no longer thinkable without photography.
Albert Renger-Patzsch
In photography one should surely proceed from essence of the object and attempt to represent it with photographic terms alone.
Albert Renger-Patzsch
There is an urgent need to examine old opinions and look at things from a new viewpoint. There must be an increase in the joy one takes in an object, and the photographer should become fully conscious of the splendid fidelity of reproduction made possible by his technique. Nature, after all, is not so poor that she requires constant improvement.
