Kamaitachi #23, 1965
"To me photography can be simultaneously a record and a 'mirror' or 'window' of self-expression. The camera is generally assumed to be unable to depict that which is not visible to the eye. And yet the photographer who wields it well can depict what lies unseen in his memory." - Eikoh Hosoe

Roy DeCarava, 1910-2009
John Coltrane et Ben Webster, 1960.
“Peter Galassi, the chief curator of photography at the Museum of Modern Art, who organized a retrospective of Mr. DeCarava’s work there in 1996, said of him on Wednesday: “He was looking at everyday life in Harlem from the inside, not as a sociological or political vehicle. No photographer black or white before him had really shown ordinary domestic life so perceptively and tenderly, so persuasively.”

Hologramme brisé
« Je me trouve aujourd’hui dans ce grand âge que je ne pensais pas atteindre, et qui constitue une des plus curieuses surprises de mon existence, j’ai le sentiment d’être comme un hologramme brisé. Cet hologramme ne possède plus son unité entière et cependant, comme dans tout hologramme, chaque partie restante conserve une image et une représentation complète du tout. »
Claude Lévi-Strauss, au Collège de France, à l’occasion de son quatre-vingt dixième anniversaire.
