What is the difference between subjective photography and other photography?

Subjective photography: Subjective photography is a school of photography art formed after World War II, which is more "abstract" than abstract photography, so it is also called "postwar school". It is the reflection of existentialism philosophy in the field of photography. Its founder is German photographer Ott Steiner. He believes that "photography is a vast field that has the ability to play its own role, and it also has a high degree of subjective initiative. But now it has become a kind of mechanical realism. " So he put forward the artistic idea of "subjectivization of photography art", and strongly advocated that the ultimate of photography art should be to remind photographers of their vague ideas and express their unspeakable inner state and subconscious activities. "Subjective photography is personalized and personalized photography. This is the art program of this school. Subjective photography artists attach great importance to their creative personality and despise all existing artistic rules and aesthetic standards. The theorists of this school openly stated that "subjective photography is not only an experimental image art, but also a free and unrestricted creative art" and "we can create photos at will by using technology. Its characteristics are: the picture has two modeling forms: "concrete" and "abstract", and the expression of self-concept is its ultimate goal. Everything in the picture is just a "carrier" for the photographer to express himself. Make full use of the perspective characteristics of the lens to "peel off" the subject from the reality and "move" it into the picture, that is, use some optical properties of the lens to transform the objective object into a materialized body of ideas, so as to combine them in the picture and create their own "world". And this world is often absurd, mysterious, or puzzling. Strengthen and highlight the specific form of an object clearly and strongly by means of close-up. Using darkroom technique, the original rich color of the subject is simplified, and the natural and ordinary relationship is transformed into a strong visual relationship. Through exposure (such as multiple exposures and continuous flashing), the subject is separated from the concept of time, and the concept of time and spatial position are actively exchanged. In addition to Ott and Stannett, his famous photographers include Jay Schmohl, Shaw Van Ocan, Lan Payne and Mo Volkert.
