Thanks for Diane Arbus' work and introduction, God help us.

Life introduction and style of work Diane Arbus (1923-1971), a famous American female photographer, was called Van Gogh in photography. The groups whose works "eulogize" are transsexuals, dwarfs, nude lovers' camps and so on. The characters in the image, whether beautiful or ugly, stare at the camera. Examination is the attitude taken by photographers and photographers. If you are not strong enough, sometimes you will even be frightened by some glaring eyes. The first photographer who was attacked as immoral was probably Diane Alles. As long as I glance at her photo, it is difficult to erase an unspeakable unhappiness in my heart. Most of her subjects are so-called deformed people in normal society-giants, Confucianism, imbeciles, disabled people, transsexuals ... And the normal people she shoots are also abnormal types-twins, triplets, nude camps ... Pure and evil Ales grew up in a very rich American Jewish family, and was brought up by her respective nannies. However, this meticulous protection has put considerable pressure on her. She said: "I think one of the things that I suffered when I was a child is that I never felt trapped. I was affirmed by an unreal feeling, and all I could feel was unreal." In this unreal pain, Alice was moved by the living tragedy when she first met the deformed man. When I was a teenager, I used to look for eccentric people on the subway, and followed them to see how they lived. She is attracted by tragic characters because she thinks they are more real than her. At the age of eighteen, Arbus got married. Her husband, Aaron Arbus, was a fashion photographer (now an actor, playing the role of a psychiatrist-Sidney in the MA. SH TV series in the field hospital). They both worked in Harper's Bazaar, an authoritative fashion magazine, and were a successful fashion photography team in the golden age of commercial photography. Arbus left fashion photography at the age of 35 and devoted herself to her job. She took the course of Lisa Rong De (196-), a female photographer, at New School Art School. Rong De has been filming unusual characters-extremely fat and thin people, extremely rich and extremely poor people. She encouraged Arbus to shoot things that attracted her but were considered extremely evil and threatening. "Evil or not," Mod told her, "if you don't take pictures of what you have to take, you will never take pictures." Arbus began to live in the Hubert FreakMuseum at the junction of 42nd Street and Broadway in new york. She followed the giants and the Buddha in the middle of the night, and she was in the dirty society. In and out of dangerous huts, brothels, transgender hotels, slavery houses. Bose wrote: "She doesn't seem to be afraid at all, but Alex is always afraid no matter what she is doing-she lives with fear and overcomes the days of fear every day. The feeling of terror turned into a therapeutic agent for her, with the pressure of growing up in the greenhouse. " Alex, who was born too well and spoiled too much, seems to want to break some taboos to break her family inheritance. She plunged into the dark world step by step, as if only by associating with evil can she wash away the pain caused by purity. Normality and Deformity Arbus is a person with extremely sensitive mind, and her way of observing people also has its own unique aspects: "We met a person on the road and basically only noticed his defects. It is strange for us to have this tendency, but because we are dissatisfied with our own nature, we have created another set-camouflage. We disguise ourselves and send a signal to the world so that others can know ourselves in a certain way. But there is a gap between what you want people to know about you and what you can't help but be disturbed by others. This is what I have always called the gap between intention and effect. " In other words, in Arbus's view, "People often pretend to be normal to let others know, while others often see your abnormal side." That's what Alex wants to show, just as Boshan said: "She photographed the abnormality in the normal state, the normality in the abnormality." Alice's photography skills are extremely simple. She has always used the square composition of Mahayana six cameras, and most of the characters take close-ups of frontal heads, and all the people who are photographed pose for photos. Hilton Kramer, an art critic of the new york Times, commented on this technique: "In Albus' photos, nothing is improvised or just' captured'. The subject people are interested and patiently facing the camera. They are fully aware of the process of taking pictures and cooperate. This sense of participation constitutes a conversation between the photographer and the object, and expresses a dignity according to the photo. And I think: dignity is the source of strength for these deformed people! " Familiar and incredible, Arbus and her subjects also have an unusual relationship. She associates with deformed people almost in envy and jealousy, so the characters in the photos have heroic interpretations. In order to shoot a Jewish giant, she has followed it for ten years, and it is impossible without enthusiasm. She also attended the dance of transgender people, dated and dined with "him" or "her", and was naked herself in order to shoot the celestial camp. She felt that she saw a higher moral standard in this special circle. She is not interested in what she is familiar with, but has a soft spot for what she has never seen and is incredible. Her words were printed on the title page of her only photo album: "Nothing has ever been familiar to ordinary people, and what I recognize is something I have never seen before." This album was edited by her daughter (Doon Arbus) and her friends before her death, and published by the famous photography publishing company Aperture (1972). The 8 black and white photos collected in it are the strangest images in the history of photography. Although these photos are regarded as "great works", they are still difficult to be accepted by the general public. Arbus uses cameras to express the most vulnerable parts of the human mind. It seems to tell the world that evil is at the bottom of everyone's heart. Everyone has an abnormal genetic factor. Among the things that you are most familiar with, there are events that you least expect. Her whole photographic intention is to show: "The familiar things are incredible. I can't believe the familiar face of this object. " There is evil in kindness and goodness in evil, which is a taboo under secular moral norms. And Alex has been pursuing the door to taboo all her life. Photography is an intention for Arbus, not a record: "For me, the theme of a photo is always more important and complicated than the photo itself. I do have feelings for photos, but I don't feel anything great. What I care about is what this photo is about. " Arbus's photographic behavior is almost a philosophical thinking, not a visual expression. The reason why she will stay in history forever is precisely: let people think about fate and tragedy, think about themselves and others, and think about the boundary between normal and abnormal through the objects she shoots. The myth that can't be solved: After she entered the taboo door, Arbus was more and more influenced by incredible things, but she couldn't really enter the "aristocratic world" she respected. "What I want to describe is that you can't get out of your skin and enter other people's bodies; The tragedy of others can never be yours. " She dyed herself black again and again, but she could never be black. This anguish tortured her again and again and made her unable to hold herself. She contracted severe periodic depression, suffered from chronic hepatitis, and finally committed suicide to seek relief. Her death was as shocking as her photography. She was lying in the bathtub, cutting it off with a blade, making the soil preparation water red with blood and herself red until she swallowed her last breath. She can't solve the riddle of life. Or is the answer "death"? After living in the dark world for forty-eight years, Arbus fulfilled his wish in the last ten years (1962-1971). From the photos taken in this decade, we can clearly see her step by step towards death, and the more bizarre and incredible the later photos are. Before his death, a group of seven photos were taken in the name of Untitled, which was a fancy dress ball for retarded children. She once described her shooting experience in this way: "A 6-year-old man with only six years of intelligence said to me,' I used to be depressed. How could I be like this?' After we danced, suddenly his eyes lit up and said,' Ha! I'm not depressed now. The third work of "Untitled" by Arbus is an imbecile wearing a devil mask. This "noble" seems to be calling Arbus: "Let's not be depressed, come on! Dance with me to hell.
