【国际摄影--环球视野】不容忽视色彩的保佑 摄影师Raghubir Singh是印度使用彩色摄影的先驱。他说真正的印度艺术家不能忽视色彩。 Raghubir Singh (1942-1999), India’s pioneer and master of color photography and best known for his vivid, complexly layered photographs of his home country. Raghubir is considered a pioneer of colour photography. In the 1970s he was one of the first photographers to insist on the use of colour at a time when colour photography was still widely disconsidered. Raghubir elaborates : “The true Indian artist cannot ignore the blessing of color that is written into the Indian idea of darshan which we know since childhood. This idea is a way of seeing that encompasses the sensuality of touch and feel, human contact and intimacy. Black does not fit into the idea of darshan.” [ Darshan is a Sanskrit term meaning “sight” (in the sense of an instance of seeing or beholding, vision, apparition, or glimpse. It is most commonly used for “visions of the divine” in Hindu worship, e.g. of a deity (especially in image form), or a very holy person or artifact.] Raghubir Singh and the Importance of Identity. |
