    Nagori and photography.

    I just realised that _nagori_ is what makes me love photography (both as a creative activity, and as a collection of artifacts).

    I mean photography in the Eugene Atget / Walker Evans tradition of documenting items of everyday life, and showing their uniqueness.

    There's a nagori element to these photographs: the photograph records things that make up the present moment and that will never come back.

    Perfect. Using photography to document the remarkable in the ordinary. The Eugene Atget / Walker Evans tradition must live on.

  6. Labor Anonymous

    In July of 1946, on assignment for Fortune magazine, photographer Walker Evans spent an afternoon at a downtown Detroit intersection, shooting passersby with his camera held at waist level. The spread was titled “Labor Anonymous” in Fortune’s “Labor in U.S. Industry”. The collection of unposed images have since been released in a 2016 photography book.

  11. Walker Evans. Vicksburg, Mississippi, mars 1936. Outre le fait d’être un grand nom de la photographie sociale et documentaire américaine, en plus d’être un grand photographe tout court, Walker Evans était aussi un passionné de la typographie dans ce qu’elle a de plus noble, sa forme vernaculaire, banale, quotidienne, et invisible.
