PHOTO EXPERIENCES RAPID METAMORPHOSIS. BECOMING HARDER AND FRUIT. And NEW TECHNOLOGIES ADDED SPECIAL EFFECTS WHICH WITHOUT SPECIAL PROGRAMS CAN'T CAMERA. ANALYSIS AGENT KATYA BOND.
Katya Bond, an agent, represents the interests of many leading photographers
Modern photography has gained incredible freedom. But it lost its elitism. Today, anyone can shoot anything and anything just by pressing a button or touch screen. And everyone now has a chance to achieve recognition and success by simply swiping their fingers across the display. But this is only partially true. I attended the photoset of my English photographer Rolf Gobit, a classic portrait painter. He shot the ballerina Irina Ginkevich, putting all his knowledge, experience, skill, excitement in a simple click of a finger ... It was an amazing moment of involvement in creativity, general emotions literally permeated the photoset and this, of course, was conveyed by the photograph. They invest in it and pay money for it today. But if we are talking about the generation of Karan Kapoor ... He, like many of his colleagues, is focused on advertising photography.
And very much in demand. Especially in Russia, because Russian clients love his style, liveliness, emotionality ... And they are willing to invest in his work. As for investments in photographic prints and photography as art, photographer Andreas Gursky sold his "99 cents" for almost $ 3.5 million to Ukrainian businessman and collector Viktor Pinchuk. In 2011, his "Rain II" went for US $ 4.4 million at Christie's, becoming the most expensive shot in the history of photography and auction trading.
