simple art

Paris, mur d'une bibliothéque. 2011

NIKON 50mm f1.8 + NIKON ND8 Ø52mm

explaination of the composition:

The location and angle were chosen was because of the composition, a simple, one sentence in the report "Rendre à l'art la simplicité de ne pas l'être",( in english, but i think the traduction isn't perfect: "Making art to the simplicity of not being") this sentence underscores the need for research without forcing the load image, so I set this picture on this subject. Either make two points converge in the presence although contrary, simplicity / complexity.

simplicity made ​​by a dirty gray city wall as background, just breaking the usual frames of shooting a good load monochrome surface and empty, with simple graphics and animation low leaving 3 / 4 of the image at the hands of simplicity all composed in front from below.

complexity given by the reflection on the composition of the person and his place in the picture, the composition of character with the sign "Yield" and the angle opposite the face painted on the wall, as if the trajectory from a right angle with the desired path through painting, painting an attempt to stop this, in contradiction with the panel that gives priority to stop the paint to give it a stronger sense, a kind of art angry at being always complicate while extremely simple games can be beautiful with a simple glance.
