More From Abbas Kiarostami

Anthropology... has always been highly dependent upon photography... as the use of still photography - and moving pictures - has become increasingly essential as a part of anthropological methods, the need for photographers with a disciplined knowledge of anthropology and for anthropologists with training in photography has increased. we expect that in the near future sophisticated training in photography will be a requirement for all anthropologists. (1962)
Photography Moving Training
I learned to live many years ago. something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if i had my druthers, it would never have been changed at all. what i learned from it is that today seems to be the hardest lesson of all. i learned to love the journey, not the destination. i learned that it is not a dress rehearsal, and that today is the only guarantee you get. i learned to look at all the good in the world and to try to give some of it back because i believed in it completely and utterly.

Photography today is accomplishing a lofty mission in which every german should collaborate by buying a camera. the german people is ahead of every other in the technical domain and, thanks to its exceptional qualities, the small camera has conquered the whole world... much is at stake here from the point of view of popular consumer goods and, furthermore, photography has a particularly important political role to play. (addressing the berlin photography fair, 1933)

The history of photography needs clearing out. it needs something else now. because photography always acknowledged there were cameras before photography.
Photography Clearing Out Cameras
I have problems with a lot of photography, particularly street photography and photojournalism - objectifying the other, finding the contempt and exoticism that you might feel within yourself or toward yourself and projecting it out to others. there can be an abusive power to photography, too.

George lucas wanted this moving camera for all of the photography in star wars. he was willing to take a risk with the concepts that i advanced with regard to ways for doing that.

Obviously, we can see what was in front of the camera, but if a photograph is honestly made, it's a bit of a self-portrait. i think it's impossible for a photographer who is working honestly to keep this from happening.
Photography Thinking Self
A hundredth of a second here, a hundredth of a second there-even if you put them end to end, they still only add up to one, two, perhaps three seconds, snatched from eternity.
