"In working carefully, we still have to accept discrepancies in linkages. If there were such a thing as perfection, it would be easier to focus an image and say it is probably sharp. But the reality is that we lose a bit here and we gain a bit there, and we are lucky that some loss here is compensated by a fortunate gain there. There is balance in every move. Maybe the reason we are interested in art is that it gives us a great sense of the aliveness of change, growth and development. Perhaps the miracle is how all this can come together as art and is suggested in a comparatively short span of time, which in a biological state of affairs would mean eons." Frederick Sommer Quote from, "A talk given at the Art Institute of Chicago, October 1970, revised June 1983," Words/Images, Center for Creative Photography (1984) |
