Robert Herman has been a street photographer since his days as an NYU film student back in the late '70s. Using his father's Nikon F and a 50mm lens, he began by exploring the city as a means to connect with the people in his neighborhood and learn the craft of making images. His photos of New York City, shot between 1978-2005 on Kodachrome, are now collected in his first monograph: “The New Yorkers”.
Talking Movies makes another return, and this time I’m aiming almost as high as you can get! I’m casting my photographer’s eye over a movie that is regularly regarded as one of the finest pieces of cinema ever. I am talking about a cinematic epic that is the daddy of all daddies, or more accurately, THE GODFATHER!
Strangers on the street can sometimes be the most action-rich subjects in photography. Just the way they look into the lens or maybe by even looking away paints a story in prints that is neither staged nor posed. It’s a fluid style of photography and maybe even the more challenging compared to other areas.
Keiichi Ichikawa is a self-employed designer. Though relatively new to street photography, Keiichi has wholly embraced the genre and street photography lifestyle. His images are filled with light and shadow play, urban geometry, and strong contrast. Keiichi's work also often includes clever juxtapositions and even a bit of whimsy. He is that rare photographer who is instantly identified with a single click of the mouse.
Photojournalism, documentary, reportage, call it what you will, shooting on the street is not easy. It needs a level of dedication and commitment as well as preparation, both mentally and with your shooting equipment.
Ethos is excited to introduce a new series, “One to Watch,” which spotlights the relationship between the artist and the critic in a time when the roles of each have become increasingly blurred, and perhaps even made irrelevant, with the advent of instantaneous communication and publication. Each month, a critic will introduce and critique the work(s) of a talented new writer, artist, or musician, and we invite the artist and our readers to respond. It is our hope that each post not only brings much deserved attention to the artist, but also that this series serves to spark conversation and perhaps even change the way we each think about, and respond to, artistic works. Suggestions for future posts can be sent to series editor Christina Lee.

A new show at the Stephen Bulger Gallery in Toronto titled “Surveillance” seeks to answer that question, featuring photographs Kertesz, who died in 1985, made using telephoto lenses, or at times a telescope attached to his camera. The show takes a photographer known for his still lifes, portraits of artists, and later work from his apartment overlooking Washington Square Park and places him on an entirely different stage.
My name is Andrew, I’m from Ukraine. I grew up in a poor urban neighborhood located outskirts of the big city. That area abounds with interesting characters and moments of life that could be safely attributed to “decisive moments” according to Cartier-Bresson.
