Tenesh Webber

1963
(USA) Canadian

Tenesh Webber 是一位加拿大抽象摄影师,她的作品探索并挑战传统黑白摄影的惯例。她居住在新泽西州泽西市,并在布鲁克林布什维克工作。

教育

Webber 曾在温哥华的 Emily Carr 艺术与设计大学以及多伦多的 OCAD 大学学习,获得 AOCA 学位。

技术

Tenesh Webber 在过去25年中,曾创作大型/壁画尺寸的印刷品;在暗房中操控照片,或在相机中操控底片。

她目前的摄影作品聚焦于中等规模的光影照相法,继续探索这一媒介。印刷品尺寸为中等规模,11"x11" 或 20"x20"。...

Webber 的创作过程始于素描,她在素描中发展图像构思。然后她用缝纫线或在有机玻璃上用马克笔制作二维物体。她通过分层、拉伸和剪切线头,以及在有机玻璃上反复线条绘制来构建图像。

这些“底片”用于创建无相机的摄影图像。

手部位置和松散的线头为作品带来偶然元素,每个系列中的每张印刷品都是独一无二的。

最终的抽象图像创造出有节奏的直觉构图,并在有机与直线之间产生张力。它们暗示了自然的宏观和微观视角,或人造物的视角。

灵感

Webber 曾师从加拿大艺术家 Ian Wallace 和 Eldon Garnet,他们是1970年代实验摄影的早期创新者,将大规模和序列影像引入摄影实践。她受这些艺术家启发,发展了自己对媒介的处理方法,探索尺度和替代摄影工艺,包括她目前的光影照相法作品。

她的摄影还受到长期以来从事抽象艺术的摄影师、画家和雕塑家的作品影响和启发。这些包括 Richard Serra 大胆的油棒绘画,Barry Le Va 的几何形态排列,以及 Agnes Martin 精致的极简过程。...

她的作品属于“光影照相法”传统,这种技术由 Man Ray 和 Laszlo Moholy-Nagy 等艺术家在1920年代创立,这些艺术家的摄影作品受到了他们绘画和雕塑实践的影响。

在这些艺术家的作品基础上,Webber 发展出一种独特的光影照相法创作方法,融合了雕塑和绘画元素,同时也引入了偶然操作。

收藏

Webber 的作品被收藏于公共和私人收藏中,包括布鲁克林博物馆和巴克莱银行,纽约。

展览

Webber 曾在全国范围内展出她的作品,包括在 Yossi Milo Gallery 和 Margaret Thatcher Projects,纽约的个展。她也曾在欧洲的群展中展出。

At Yossi Milo Gallery, A Group Show of Artists Painting with Light - Ideelart

在Yossi Milo画廊,艺术家们用光作画的群展

2019年1月17日,纽约的Yossi Milo画廊将举办一场群展,探讨当代具体摄影的现状。展览题为用光绘画,将展出25位以上艺术家的作品,他们摒弃传统摄影策略,采用抽象、概念性或实验性的方法动用光线来改变表面。尽管“具体摄影”这一术语直到20世纪60年代才被提出,但这一理念已存在超过一个世纪。它在大多数方面不同于纪实摄影,甚至不同于许多类型的抽象摄影。大多数纪实摄影的目的是记录转瞬即逝的...

Connecting Points of Milan Houser - Ideelart

米兰豪斯的连接点

捷克艺术家Milan Houser正证明自己是这一时代完美的美学代表,在这个时代,人类越来越多地在模糊中寻找美与意义。已知的太多,我们渴望未知;数据充斥我们的生活,我们渴望神秘与想象。在斯洛伐克布拉迪斯拉发Kunsthalle举办的个人展览《连接点》中,Houser既表达了这些感受,也成为了缓解的先兆。这个紧凑的展览在一个L形画廊中展出六件作品。三件中等大小的圆盘上布满同心圆,墙上悬挂着一...

Why Liz Nielsen’s Photography Is So Unusual - Ideelart

为什么Liz Nielsen的摄影如此不同寻常

Liz Nielsen 既是摄影师,又像魔术师。她从模拟摄影暗房的漆黑空间中,诱导出色彩鲜艳的光影图像。她的创作过程产生的图像部分是有计划的,部分是偶然的;部分具象,部分抽象。这些作品是多种方法的结果,但最终却不显露任何制作技巧。它们的形态令人难忘且奇异地童真。形状的边缘有时清晰,有时似乎消散在虚幻的空间中。仿佛有某种极其简单又极其复杂的事情正在发生——这在某种程度上确实如此。Nielse...

Sam Falls’ Abstract Shapes of Nature - Ideelart

萨姆·福尔斯的自然抽象形状

多学科艺术家Sam Falls在美国人口最稀少的地区之一——佛蒙特州乡村长大。他从小在自然环境中漫步,惊叹于生命、死亡与重生的有机过程在他周围不断循环。他还观察了人类与偏远自然环境的各种互动方式,尤其是在消费社会与荒野交汇的边界地带。自2010年从巴德学院国际摄影中心获得艺术硕士学位以来,他一直在探讨通过思考人类与生物圈的联系所获得的体验、教训和理念。这种探究促使他尝试多种视觉策略来表达自...

Light Meets Chemicals in Mariah Robertson’s Photography - Ideelart

光与化学在玛丽亚·罗伯逊的摄影中相遇

Mariah Robertson 的作品被形容为激动人心、极端,甚至爆炸性。一眼望去她的大型照片纸卷装置,你就会明白原因。作品不可否认。色彩极为鲜艳,构图复杂难解,且其实体感既吸引人又新鲜。Robertson 使用摄影媒介——照片纸、化学药品和光线——但她不再使用相机。她通过先有策略地曝光照片纸以创造受控的图案和形状,然后将各种化学混合液泼洒、滴落和投掷到其表面,让受控的混乱以不可预测的方...

At LACMA, Sarah Charlesworth Presents Doubleworld - Ideelart

在LACMA,Sarah Charlesworth呈现《双重世界》

“影像世代”听起来像是今天出生的孩子们的绝佳称呼。历史上从未有过如此多的人能够即时使用拍照技术,并能瞬间将照片分享至全球。但这个词实际上指的是一群艺术家,包括Sarah Charlesworth、John Baldessari、Sherrie Levine、Laurie Simmons、Cindy Sherman以及其他数十位艺术家,他们在40年前就开始努力理解并批判影像在人类身份形成中的...

Edward Burtynsky and Landscapes Like No Other - Ideelart

爱德华·伯廷斯基与独一无二的风景

加拿大摄影师Edward Burtynsky近四十年来一直在拍摄自然世界。他于1970年代末开始职业生涯,从严格的形式主义视角拍摄自然风景,将构图方式模仿抽象表现主义绘画。正如他网站上的一段话所述:“他最先考虑的是抽象表现主义对画面空间的处理,将其视为一个密集、压缩的场域,均匀分布在大型构图的整个表面上。”但在接下来的几年里,Burtynsky扩展了他最初为摄影事业设定的谦逊目标。他不再仅...

Merging Science and Photography - The Art of Fabian Oefner - Ideelart

科学与摄影的融合 - 法比安·厄夫纳的艺术

近年来,你很可能见过瑞士摄影师Fabian Oefner的作品。自2013年他开设专业摄影工作室以来,他那些捕捉科学现象、宛如魔法般定格瞬间的照片,曾出现在BBC、《华盛顿邮报》以及《连线》、《明镜》和《国家地理》等众多媒体上。尽管这些影像看似神秘,Oefner的作品实际上是通过相当直接的过程完成的。在他的工作空间内,他简单地让自然力量开始运动,然后在完美的时刻将其定格,让观众得以看到通常...
