The history of abstract photography

The earliest abstract photography experiment appeared at the beginning of19th century, which exposed objects on photosensitive materials and produced abstract black-and-white reflection images with arbitrary shapes. However, this initial abstraction of physical photos is not considered as an expression. It is generally believed that the original purposeful and abstract photos were created by alvin langdon coburn. 19 12 years, he took a group of photos called new york from the top of new york. The exploration of creating abstract images by using object shadow technology began with Christian Shepard's collage in 19 18 and the works of Laszlo Mohori Naji and man ray. The latter two developed this technology vigorously in the 1920s.
