PAUL GRAHAM – FILMS
2011-10-17Films gather 15 pieces that are a tribute to the physical material of photography: film.
Images show what first appears to be abstract dots, blobs or colour forms, but that are in fact just greatly magnified images of the raw film emulsion. These images are not abstract at all, but extreme close-ups of the film’s structure.
Films series is a result of Paul Graham past 30 years of work and reflects a central theme for him during this time: his attention on the photographic nature itself.
Graham is known as one of the first documentary photographers that have better used color in photography. He has been an expert in C-type films. Graham has always printed his own images and at the beginning of his career, printing other’s photographes was his first source of income.
