Uelsmann Did It First In The Darkroom,
By
This review is from: Uelsmann: Process and Perception: Photographs and Commentary (Paperback)
What many of us are now doing on our computers for our art work, Jerry Uelsmann, a professor and photographer in Florida did first in the darkroom. "Process and Perception," by John Ames and Jerry N. Uelsmann shows page by page the surreal imagery of things that don't go together in the real world but are hauntingly combined in Uelsmann's photographs. He wisely stayed with black and white in all of the images because he evokes the dream world or the world evoked by the photographic negative. Color would have competed with his imagery too much. You see a woman's body floating above the water or combined with the roots of a tree or water running backwards as a person emerges from the sea, to name just a few of his works. These are all fantastic combinations and he must have spent grueling hours in the darkroom achieving these photographs. I think any artist or photographer will be inspired by his work.

Uelsmann amazing,

This review is from: Uelsmann: Process and Perception: Photographs and Commentary (Paperback)
He's been at for sooo long and I still find his work at every stage, in every phase, incredible. Process and Perception gave a peek, albeit a tiny one, but a glance as to how he approaches his work. I'd like more about how his head works, which is why the four rather than five stars. It was still good, and i'd buy it again. Thank you Jerry!!
