Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus

Few days ago I watched a photography related movie "Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus" and I have to say I really enjoyed that so I highly recommend it to everyone.

Trailer below


If you're interested, read a bit more about Diane Arbus

Also some changes on my blog. I decided to remove links section... I don't update it at all and nobody visits it anyway. I'm going to keep links on the right hand side though so if you want to make a trade just let me know.

As you can see I also added a new section called "Movies about photography". It's going to be a nice (and long I hope) list of movies related to photography. I'm going to add movies one by one and only the ones I've seen myself.
For now there's a great document "The Genius of Photography", "Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus" mentioned above and Blow-up which I saw couple of years ago. More to come :)

The Genius of Photography

I just started to watch a really great BBC series called "The Genius of Photography". To encourage you a bit take a look at short description from the BBC websites.

In the course of our 170 year relationship, photography has delighted us, served us, moved us, outraged us and occasionally disappointed us. But mainly, it has intrigued us by showing the secret strangeness that lies beneath the world of appearances. And that is photography's true genius.

Follow the story of photography in BBC Four's six-part series 'The Genius of Photography'. See some of the most famous photographs ever taken and find out more about what made them so very special.


All episodes can be found on Youtube :-)
