  • Buchrezension: Wald

    Der Tag neigt sich seinem Ende zu. Der Herbst auch. Zwischen den hohen Stämmen ist es zwielichtig. Kalter Regen tropft ins Unterholz. Nicht eine Spur von auch nur einer Menschenseele.

    Wie stark ist der Wald als mythischer Ort in unserer Kultur verankert? Kann man ihm die Bedeutung, die er einmal hatte, heute eigentlich noch beimessen?

    Dies sind Fragen, die man sich stellen kann, wenn man sich die jüngste Arbeit des Fotografen Michael Lange anschaut.

    Jedoch stellt man ziemlich schnell fest, dass er uns eigentlich nichts sagen oder zeigen will, der Wald. Er ist halt einfach da.

    Und im besten Sinne ehrlich lakonisch sind Langes Fotografien von ihm. Doch es steckt auch noch etwas mehr in ihnen. Eine Art Meditation vielleicht.

    Wie der Fotograf kürzlich selbst in einem Künstlergespräch mit dem Bildwissenschaftler Prof. Dr. Christoph Schaden erzählte, habe er die Serie vor einiger Zeit als ganz persönliches Projekt begonnen.

    Ein Jahr lang habe er niemandem von seinem Projekt erzählt, um das Thema ganz in Ruhe und nur mit sich selbst allein zu entwickeln.

    Er lege Wert darauf, dass der Betrachter die Bilder nicht als dokumentarische Arbeit missverstehe. Es seien „einfach meine Bilder vom Wald“, so Lange.

    Aufgeräumt wirken die Bilder und zugleich ungestellt. Ihre visuelle Struktur enthält eine kompromisslose Natürlichkeit ohne künstliche Brüche.

    Die Art, wie sich in ihnen allein durch das subtile Wechselspiel von hellen und schattigen Partien räumliche Tiefe abzeichnet, zeugt von einer hohen ästhetischen Intelligenz.

    Viel Detail steckt in Langes Waldbildern. Ein Reichtum, den der Fotograf durch die Verwendung eines digitalen Mittelformatsensors an einer Fachkamera erzielte.

    Eine subtile Bewegungsunschärfe zeichnet sich ab, dort wo der Wind die Äste kitzelt. Sie gibt Aufschluss darüber, dass Lange jedes der Bilder einige Sekunden belichten musste, um der Dämmerung Zeichnung abzugewinnen.

    In den Wäldern von Schleswig-Holstein, Niedersachsen, Hessen und Rheinland-Pfalz fotografierte er, doch ist der eigentliche Ort irrelevant. Die Bilder beschreiben mit einer den Ort ignorierenden Selbstverständlichkeit das Phänomen Wald als einen Aspekt, in dem sich die Natur abbildet.

    „Wald“* ist im Hatje-Cantz-Verlag erschienen, umfasst 72 Seiten und kostet neu 45 EUR.

    Begleitend zum Buch ist auch die Ausstellung „Wald. Landschaften der Erinnerung“ sehenswert. Noch bis zum 23. Dezember werden Michael Langes großformatige Bilder im Rahmen des Europäischen Monats der Fotografie in der Niederlassung der Alfred-Ehrhardt-Stiftung in Berlin gezeigt.

  • Documentary Photographer Daniel Milnor Photography Tips and Advice

    www.silberstudios.tv Documentary photographer Daniel Milnor joins us today on the Marc Silber show to talk about his approach to photography and the work he loves to do. He loves focusing on documentary work, especially long-term black and white documentary projects, both domestically and internationally. In the field, Dan uses a very stripped down system of equipment. He often works with a single camera and a lens and occasionally mixes cameras and formats only when he teaches. Typically, he advises against mixing formats, such as color and black & white photographs. You only have a split second to catch an image when analyzing a scene, and having too complex a set-up may cause you to miss the moment. Developing the idea of a project’s story is crucial, so he always does his research beforehand. Nowadays, it is easy to do documentary work by going out into the field and winging it, but when you have a theme in mind, it’s better to perform research for a more complete picture. BTW, a big thanks you to the folks at Calumet San Francisco for helping us out with the shoot. Thanks to WPO for their assistance with the interviews.

    I hope this turned out better… I’m still trying to get use to the whole convergence thing. I think I’m starting to get it and in future videos the 3D effect should become much more better.
