BRUCE GILDEN GIVES HIS TWO CENTS ON VICE

This new segment just opened up awhile back and I wanted to sort of talk about this particular episode. Bruce Gilden is noted as one of the most aggressive street photographers of all time (well... next to Mark Cohen in his prime). This particular episode, however, focuses on art photography, so, the images showcased are more set up than candid.

Towards the end of the episode he critiqued Elena Montemurro's pictures. I'm a big fan of her work and seeing this had me excited. It was awesome to see Bruce understanding Elena's concept. There was a shot he critiqued of 3 girls looking inside the trunk of a car. He liked the expressions, the line that slightly cuts off the face, and the way it was cinematically composed.

It was great to see her work. It was great to see that Bruce Gilden critique it.

I will be watching more of these segments when they come around. For now check out Elena Montemurro's work.
