PHOTOgraphia

Prin spectaculoasa evolutie a mediului digital, fotografia a devenit, in doar cativa ani, cea mai accesibila modalitate de exprimare artistica. In prezent, poate mai mult ca niciodata, educatia vizuala si artistica a fotografului entuziast a devenit conditio sine qua non, iar lipsa acesteia nu aduce beneficii unui domeniu care inca isi mai cauta argumente in fata publicului avizat si care inca se lupta pentru a fi pozitionat intr-un loc onorabil in istoria artei.

Consideram ca a sosit momentul ca fotografia romaneasca sa inceteze sa mai faca compromisuri pentru a „capata” valoare. Suntem intr-un moment de cumpana; putem alege directia potrivita sau ne putem narui sub propria incapacitate de a ne ridica, sub propriul entuziasm nestrunit.

Revista PHOTOgraphia este o publicatie care se doreste a fi un partener onest si de incredere pentru fotograful pasionat, in cautare de informatie si repere. Cititorii nostri vor avea la dispozitie un continut atractiv care sa intampine dorintele si nevoile lor, sa defineasca noi asteptari, sa contureze o etica si un comportament fotografic cu baze profunde, sa-i ajute sa discearna, sa fie informati, sa inteleaga ca in fata fotografiei nu au doar drepturi, ci si responsabilitati, si sa aduca lumina acolo unde sunt doar umbre conturate nesigur.

„Dorinta nu are istorie”, scria Susan Sontag in cartea sa „Despre fotografie”. Dorinta de a schimba ceva, dorinta de a aduce in prim-plan oamenii talentati din acest domeniu, dorinta de a scoate fotografia romaneasca din compromisuri si din granitele invizibile ale ignorantei – aceasta dorinta are istorie si mai ales viitor!

The spectacular development of digital media, photography has become, in just a few years, most affordable way of artistic expression. Today, perhaps more than ever, visual and artistic education became enthusiastic photographer conditio sine qua non, and its absence does not benefit a domain is still longer seek arguments against public opinion and that is still struggling to be positioned in an honorable place in the history of art.

We believe that the time has come to stop Romanian photo compromise to "get" value. We are at a watershed moment; we can choose the right direction and we crumble under its own inability to rise, under his unbridled enthusiasm.

"Desire is not history," Susan Sontag wrote in his book "About the photo". The desire to change something, the desire to bring the spotlight on talented people in this area, the desire to remove Romanian photo of compromise and the invisible boundaries of ignorance - this desire is especially history and future!
