Wim Wenders and Me

February 27, 2018 By Peter J. Crowley 3 Comments

Recently read an article in The Guardian about Wim Wenders Polaroids. His thoughts on the Art Photography Genre rang true they could be my words.  “The culture has changed. It has all gone. I really don’t know why we stick to the word photography any more. There should be a different term, but nobody cared about finding it.”
“It’s not just the meaning of the image that has changed – the act of looking does not have the same meaning. Now, it’s about showing, sending and maybe remembering. It is no longer essentially about the image. The image for me was always linked to the idea of uniqueness, to a frame and to composition. You produced something that was, in itself, a singular moment. As such, it had a certain sacredness. That whole notion is gone.” That was my world and will continue to be it isn’t the problem of the copiers of things in front of them it is my problem for being unable to accept content and quantity as the new normal. Technically excellent void of emotion “What program did you use”? peace pjc

An Afternoon Walk in Seattle

July 28, 2017 By Peter J. Crowley 1 Comment

Dilated and dizzy I hit the streets of Seattle after Eye Institute visit.

Off to the oldest Chinese Restaurant in the International District. Tai Tung where owner Harry Chan visited our table when I asked about the Black and White photos from 1982, Children in San Francisco’s Chinatown. The work was very good and I left a note with Harry for the photographer. The food was excellent.
