La fotografia è arte "Scultura fotografica" - Photography is art "Photo Sculpture"
La fotografia ormai è acquisita come opera d'arte, è dagli anni sessanta o settanta, che si afferma soprattutto come documento visivo, ma successivamente diversi artisti hanno assimilato molto in fretta il concetto che la fotografia potesse essere una espressione artistica originale ed indipendente. Non solo quindi una riproduzione pura e semplice della realtà ma una immagine con contenuti e concetti profondi. Artisti come Marcel Duchamp o Robert Smithson utilizzano la fotografia come strumento capace di esprimere, indipendentemente dal soggetto rappresentato, significati che possono, in qualche modo, essere "frammenti di eternità". Duchamp intende come "ready-made" il fotografare un oggetto, Simthson creare un'impronta appunto perenne. Quindi unire ready-made alla fotografia per creare immagini che possono diventare, come per esempio faranno Bernd e Hilla Becher, con le loro foto di costruzioni industriali ormai in disuso, delle vere e proprie "sculture fotografiche". L'arte fotografica diventa quindi, arte plastica.
The photograph has now acquired as a work of art, is from the sixties or seventies , which is mainly as a visual document states , but later many artists have assimilated very quickly the notion that photography could be an original and independent artistic expression . So not only a mere reproduction of reality, but an image with content and profound concepts . Artists such as Marcel Duchamp and Robert Smithson using photography as a tool capable of expressing , regardless of the subject represented , meaning that they can, in some way, be "fragments of eternity." Duchamp understood as "ready -made" the photographing an object, create an impression Simthson precisely perennial . So combine ready-made to photography to create images that can become , such as will Bernd and Hilla Becher , with their pictures of disused industrial buildings , the real " photographic sculptures ." The photographic art then becomes , plastic art .
