Quotes: Berenice Abbott
Thursday, April 5th, 2007
Let us first say what photography is not. A photograph is not a painting, a poem, a symphony, a dance. It is not just a pretty picture, not an exercise in contortionist techniques and sheer print quality. It is or should be a significant document, a penetrating statement, which can be described in a very simple term - selectivity.
Berenice Abbott, in “Infinity” magazine, 1951.
