A bit of photography...

Gueorgui pinkhassov

I thought it would be cool to share with you one of my passion : PHOTOGRAPHY so I have chosen 
to present you a not really well-known photographer but that I think is worth knowing (to me his pictures are absolutely great even if some of you won't probably love them but anyway)
I just wrote a little biography for you to know a bit about him and then the PICTURES!

So, Gueorgui Pinkhassov is a russian artist born in 1952 in Moscow but he now also has the French nationality. Pinkhassov really began being interested in photgraphy while studying at the Moscow Institute of Cinematography, he then got the status of Independant artist.
When he moved to France he joined Magnum Photos in 1988( an International photographic cooperative based in Paris, New York, London and Tokyo and founded in 1947)
Pinkhassov often works for the internationnal press and loves traveling around the world to take pictures.


I discovered this photographer in a book about Magnum Photos and the first picture of him I saw was this one (I think the colours and details very impressive)

What I love in his work is the way he plays with colors and light, often artificial and colored lights that creates a special and mysterious atmosphere and that also gives an old look to his pictures.
Most of his photos have been taken in the street without any model posing for him, they are only moments of life, this is why I love them even more.


But enough words, I let you discover him ..

  3. These colours are soooo beautiful, the photos themselves are amazing, of course, but these coulours truly are striking! I've always been paying particular attention to colours in films, photos, images in general so I might look for more of his works!
    Thank you for sharing Chiara ^^

  7. I just fell in love with these photographies ! The colors are just so beautiful and the athmosphere makes me feel like they could have been taken out of a movie (sorry if this sounds strange but I, at least, understand myself). And the fact that there is no staging (like there are no professional models) makes them even more touching. So thank you so much for this great photographer discovery :)

  8. I have never heard of the photographer before but his photos are amazing ! I love the mysterious effect of them and the colours are amazing ! I love how he just takes a picture of something that is happening and just makes it look different with the angles or the light.

  9. Colors and lights are very impressive. I really love the framing of all theses pictures... We can see it's everyday-life photos, with a little touch of retro style. To me, it's simple but really nice to look.
    My favourites pictures are probably the second and the third... Green and red lights give a dark impression... I love it.
    Thanks, I've discovered a very interesting artist !

  10. This was an interesting article that I enjoyed a lot! I also love photography, even though I don’t have a thorough knowledge of photographers. This is why I liked the fact that the article was about an artist who is not well-known. I love the style of his photographs and the way they all seem like paintings. This made me want to discover more artists that aren’t very famous, so thank you for making me want to look into photography more!
