Is Photography art?

in dtube •  6 years ago 


My friend Inma is an award winning artist. I attended one of her exhibitions where I had the honour of recording this video interview with her.

The question: "is photography art?" is one that has been debated for a long time, since the advent of photography itself. Since she's both an artist in the traditional sense, and a lover of photography, I thought it would be great to hear her perspective on the issue.

Inma seems Spanish or Venezuelan really from her accent really, I definitely think I love how her art story and history panned out really, awesome black and white effect to the video really and in my opinion photography is an art up to an extent really. Not all except the ones that have underlying second meaning

Yes she's Spanish :)
I agree with you that the underlying meaning is what makes it art. Photography can be simply for documentation purposes, much like writing. For example a to-do list is a document, while a poem is art. Both are writings, but the intention is what counts.

Definitely Ade, when it can appeal and interprete separately into different meaning to a lot of people it makes it art, for example the monalisa is art while the picture of a president hanging on a wall is just a picture.

Ade great content. I love this format, bro continue doing it.

Thank you. I love the format too.

Definitely art. I'm consistently amazed at how artistic some photography can be. Example I have recently been following some landscape photographers, and I continue to marvel at how they can take a landscape photo with a single tree as the focal point, and it be so damned artistic. I have so much to learn.

Hahaha. So do I captain. So do I :)

Anything that expresses creativity within one, and the expresses imagination, may it be visually or not is art to me.
anything along those lines that can be both appreciated and provoke emotions is art to me.

Photography, in that sense, is a true form of art.

I love how Inma is super critical to make everything around herself a part of the conversation. Really artistic.
Lovely vid, man.

Thank you so much. Inma is awesome really.

It really is. And brings so much joy especially if it is done with passion

Indeed. Well said.

No doubt about its artistic value as it often engages and inspires to do much more! Thanks for sharing thr perspective!
