Color Taste Matter

More From Edouard Manet

Taste governs every free - as opposed to rote - human response. nothing is more decisive. there is taste in people, visual taste, taste in emotion - and there is taste in acts, taste in morality. intelligence, as well, is really a kind of taste: taste in ideas.
Ideas People Taste
For many years, i have been moved by the blue at the far edge of what can be seen, that color of horizons, of remote mountain ranges, of anything far away. the color of that distance is the color of an emotion, the color of solitude and of desire, the color of there seen from here, the color of where you are not. and the color of where you can never go.
Distance Mountain Ranges Blue
The discovery of the good taste of bad taste can be very liberating. the man who insists on high and serious pleasures is depriving himself of pleasure; he continually restricts what he can enjoy; in the constant exercise of his good taste he will eventually price himself out of the market, so to speak. here camp taste supervenes upon good taste as a daring and witty hedonism. it makes the man of good taste cheerful, where before he ran the risk of being chronically frustrated. it is good for the digestion.
Witty Exercise Men
The impressionistic method leads into a complete splitting and dissolution of all areas involved in the composition, and color is used to create an overall effect of light. the color is, through such a shading down from the highest light in the deepest shadows, sacrified an degraded to a (black-and-white) function. this leads to the destructions of the color as color.
Black And White Color Light
I see myself as no color. i can play the role of a man. i can paint my face white if i want to and play the role of white. i can play a green, i can be a purple. i think i have that kind of frame and that kind of attitude where i can play an animal. if you think in color, then everyone around you is going to think in color and that puts limits on the way you think. i don't think like that. a lot of the roles that i'm doing are roles that a man or a person of any color can do.
Attitude Thinking Animal
Color tends to corrupt photography and absolute color corrupts it absolutely. consider the way color film usually renders blue sky, green foliage, lipstick red, and the kiddies' playsuit. these are four simple words which must be whispered: color photography is vulgar.

I think that it was a great advantage to go into photography not knowing much about it. not thinking. i think one of the problems with many photographers today is that they never see for themselves, but just like everybody else.
Photography Thinking Knowing
A family's photograph album is generally about the extended family and, often, is all that remains of it.
