Katsuji Fukuda

« Fukuda Katsuji was born in 1899. Except for a few years after the Great Kanto Earthquake when he was trying to establish his career in places such as Nakanoseki, Sakai, Hiroshima and Osaka, Fukuda spent his long life working in Tokyo.

After returning to Tokyo for good in 1933, Fukuda had a successful career in advertising photography, specializing in still lifes and nudes with modernist influences, as well as authoring practical books on photography. A series of photographs in Asahi Camera in 1936 featuring portraits of Setsuko Hara and Takako Irie were very popular and led to his first photobooks of women.

After the war Fukuda was one of the first prominent photographers to experiment with color and continued to publish collections of nude studies and books on technique. However his emphasis on the aesthetics of beauty made his work seem old-fashioned during the postwar wave of realism led by Ken Domon and the trends that followed. In 1974 he was not among the 100 living photographers profiled by Camera Mainichi.

However, in 1979 his contribution to the famed Sonorama Shashin Sensho, « Psalm » led to reassessments of his contributions. In the afterword of Psalm, Akira Hasegawa pointed out that « …there are no photographers of women in Japan even today who have not been influenced by Fukuda in one way or another. Many techniques commonly used today were developed by Fukuda, a fact which has been forgotten. »

Fukuda continued working in his old age, long enough to see the increasing estimations of his work that has continued to this day. Now he is often anthologized in collections of Modernist and mid-century works. » text From the catalogue A Solitary Modernist Photographer Katsuji Fukuda Exhibition.

John Gutmann Part 2

« John Gutmann (1905–1998) was one of America’s most distinctive photographers. Born in Germany where he trained as an artist and art teacher, he fled the Nazis in 1933 and settled in San Francisco, reinventing himself as a photo-journalist. Gutmann captured images of American culture, celebrating signs of a vibrant democracy, however imperfect. His own status as an outsider—a Jew in Germany, a naturalized citizen in the United States—informed his focus on individuals from the Asian-American, African-American, and gay communities, as well as his photography in India, Burma, and China during World War II. Gutmann’s interests in painting and filmmaking, his collections of non-Western art and artifacts, and his pedagogy, all figure in a body of work at once celebratory and mysterious.

Gutmann was born to prosperous German-Jewish parents, in Breslau, Germany (since 1945, Wrocław, Poland). At age twenty-two, he graduated from the regional Academy of Arts and Crafts, where he studied with leading Expressionist painter Otto Müller. In 1927 Gutmann moved to Berlin, where he taught art to schoolchildren, participated in group exhibitions, and in 1931 had a solo show at the prestigious Gurlitt Gallery. However, his career was interrupted by the rise to power of the National Socialists in early 1933. While his family made plans to immigrate to New York, Gutmann set out on his own with San Francisco as his destination, and photography as his new profession. Before departing Germany, he acquired a Rolleiflex camera, hastily shot three rolls of film, and managed to secure a contract from the Berlin office of Presse-Photo. Making the most of a bad situation, he explored a new life as a foreign correspondent who would supply the very modern European illustrated press with views and reports from the American West.

By 1936, he had broken his contract with the Berlin press agency and made a new one with Pix in New York. By 1937, he had begun to teach art regularly at San Francisco College (later San Francisco State University), and this became his primary profession after a World War II era stint in the U.S. army. Gutmann retired his professorship in 1973 and began to reassess his body of work, sorting through boxes of negatives and making new prints of selected examples from the 1930s. It was a well-timed exercise: not only did Gutmann’s images satisfy a growing historical appetite for Depression-era photography, they also seemed compatible with certain kinds of experimental photography then emerging in the contemporary art scene. Before his death in 1998, Gutmann had seen his work featured in gallery and museum exhibitions, catalogues, and monographs.

By bequeathing his rich archive of nearly 5000 modern photographic prints, negatives, tearsheets, letters, and some drawings and early art prints to the CCP, John Gutmann has left us with the task of pursuing the rich knots, braids, tangles and threads in his complex life and work that unfolded over a most tumultuous and provocative century of modernity  » By ccp

Ira Bordo/Octavio Paz

les fleuves de ton corps
pays de battements
entrer en toi
pays d’yeux clos
eau sans pensées
entrer en moi
à l’orée de ton corps
pays de miroirs en éveil
pays d’eau qui veille
dans la nuit endormie
je me regarde en ce que je vois
comme entrer par mes yeux
dans un oeil plus limpide
tout ce que je vois me regarde
deltas des bras du désir
sur une couche de vertiges
la transparence est tout ce qui demeure

Octavio Paz -Blanc

Kristen Hatgi/Paul Auster

« Nuit.
Et j’ai avancé ma main de mendiant
vers ton ombre, cramponnée
aux murs nets, ocre,
de la faim.
Au-dessus de nous, le ciel a fait
éclater son secret.
Au-dessus de nous, une charrue a fendu la terre
en deux.
J’ai vidé les constellations, puis
t’ai fourrée à nouveau d’éternité.
Nuit.
Et je t’ai verrouillé dans
la question qui s’écoulait de moi avec la rosée.
Et j’ai appris par cœur le silence.
Et j’ai bâti une réponse pour personne.
Et je suis remonté
de ton corps profond, lumineux.
Et me suis perdu moi-même
à jamais. »

Paul Auster, In Veille

Erwin Blumenfeld (1897-1969) – nudes and portraits

Erwin Blumenfeld est un photographe des plus influents  du 20ème siècle et notamment dans la mode, mais aussi du nu, il sera   l’un des photographes les mieux payés de son époque. Il a fait la une des plus grands magazines de modes des années 40 et 50 ( il signe ses premiers contrats en 1939  avec Harper’s Bazaar et produisait dejà depuis une année des photos pour Vogue. Mais en 1940 Blumenfeld est interné dans les camps de concentration de Montbard-Marmagne, Vernet d’Ariège et Catus, à sa sortie il part vivre au États unis. Il fût un novateur approfondissant  ses recherches et techniques audacieuses qui vont de pair avec celles de Man Ray par exemple, la photomanipulation ou  la solarisation était  ses grands dadas..

Ah Dada justement !!! Bien avant l’époque de la fin des année 30, Blumenfeld fît parti d’un  groupe Dada où il se lia avec George Grosz, juste avant de s’installer à  Amsterdam, où il fonda la Centrale Dada avec Paul Citroen.( son ami depuis l’enfance, d’ailleurs Erwin se mariera avec sa soeur …).  Il réalise à cette époque beaucoup de collages de dessin et des photomontages ( voir article Ici ). Il pratique la photographie « expérimentale » en tant qu’amateur jusqu’en 1936, date à laquelle il devint professionnel et s’installe à Paris où il participa à l’activité surréaliste, ses clichés étant reproduits dans les revues Minotaure et Verve, pour ne citer que celle- ci.

Aujourd’hui c’est plutôt cette époque que nous allons voir, celle qui précède les photographie de mode et la couleur ( quelques planches  ici ) , nous nous arrêterons aux années 50, et même si plusieurs planches ont été publiées dans des magazines de modes , il n’en reste pas moins qu’elles présentent malgré tout cette technique

Le site d’Erwin Blumenfeld la biographie de wikipedia est très bien voir aussi le  site de Vogue   et un bon pdf sur sa bio
