Andre Kertesz

Title: Displace people
Artist: Andre Kertesz
Medium:
Year: 1916

Give a brief description of the movement, photographer, or term you researched. How are they significant to the history of photography (50-75 words)?
Andre Kertesz was known for his groundbreaking contributions in photographic compositions from what I read his technique in his early career was vary unorthodox camera angels and stile and prevented him from gaining the notoriety he desired.


Write a short personal reaction to the movement, photographer or term you researched. What is interesting or not interesting about the work (50 – 75 words).
I found a quote Andre Kertesz had made on a tv show called AMERICAN MASTERS in 1985 he said " Technique isn't important, Technique is in the blood, Events and moods are more important than good lighting and the happening is what is important" I thought that was pretty cool.
