I think you guys are completely misrepresenting the proposed theme for this year PEF. I see no relationship between the vast majority of the papers presented to the subject, nor the pictures selected for the virtual expo on Flickr. I thought that the event be proposed to discuss the relations between man and the environment.
I think we just got a ride on the wave of the moment. And the ride was really in name only. A pity!
I noticed the same thing, Joseph A pity it.
I begin to explain why I did not send anything. Because I knew that this choice would be there ... The whole of Brazil is producing works that show the disastrous relationship between human beings and the environment and I just see something that does not match the reality we live in and even with the theme. I speak because I am not fake, nor am I nor political supporters or foes'll take me at my funeral.
The Amazon lost 49,000 kilometers square in area of forest conservation and São Felix do Xingu on fire in the region of the Midwest through 1073 and set fires in Para and Amazonas things do not fall behind, and the fire rages criminal with impunity, under the eyes of the Lula government - head of the monthly allowance - and his IBAMA, and I am absolutely sure that everything is well documented. Plus, I firmly believe that many did not send any material for fear of wasting time. And they sent, did not like the result, and if they remained silent, I'm sorry, but should alert everyone to the ephemerality of the committee chosen. And before I forget, I'll make an exception to the work of Leonardo Costa Braga because of its refined aesthetic and philosophical. I liked his message. Praise also the choice of oficineiros. Anderson, Bob and Klaus and others, could not be better.
"Inventory of the Earth"? It is the pollution of São Paulo are traffic jams in all major metrópopoles, blood gushing from the veins of the worker due to lack of security, the exploitation of man by capitalism mother bitch that needs to support their children but do not have the slightest chance because he is black and discriminated by racism in its full magnitude, from the cradle, the torture of workers in the agro business millionaires; slavery silent on farms across the country, state violence against teachers in schools and students, where all pretend to learn and teach others that the rain of bullets official and unofficial thugs. "Inventory of the Earth" is to show the chaos and discuss them as if the famine ravaging the land of all participants in this meeting.
And before I forget. The choice of a few guests to chat is awful and has a base dictatorial ally and advocate of contemporary photography that moves and not yet said what came to. Olivo Barbieri, Jörg Brüggemann, artist Alejandro Chaskielberg are three characters who click, it's obvious, but that does not cause tingling in my mind or the many that did not thrill. In place of three, could have been invited three more talented Brazilians from other regions. Dirceu Maués and Luiz Vasconcelos of the journal Critique masterfully documenting the chaos and beauty of the Amazon and which won an award in http://www.worldpressphoto.org/index.php? ... task. .. It could be three more of Sao Paulo and I am not surprised! It's a shame that things forward in this way and it's time the organizers pluralizarem movements, studying who and how many actually produce in this country, thus breaking this hegemony of the shaft, because the whole of Brazil shooting!
In Paraty will go if only to drink rum, enjoy the sea and the poetry of place. To try to attend this meeting? Just move the "contemporary focus" and decide to do a duel with real photo quality of the works of Flavius Damm, Ripper, Nair, Luiz Carlos Felizardo and many others. Excuse me I'll shoot. Hasta la vista!
"About the best shot, always say in interviews that, God willing, I will do tomorrow when I go out with my Leica M2, black & white film, 400ASA, only the use of 50mm lens (normal), as I do every day to venture some approach to those who do not know me and I do not know. Nor do I know, for what? I want more is shooting, "my beach", the air I breathe. "Flavio Damm - ( http://paratyemfoco.com/blog/2010/04/a-melhor-foto-de-flavio-damm/ )
The photos are beautiful, but (except the last) really has nothing to do with the theme "Inventories of the Earth" or "How do you see the planet" kkkkkkkk
excellent perspective and commentary Wank. I was also disappointed with the misalignment of the choices with the proposed theme and lack of provocation and the impact they could be present. How do you say well, has a lot going on and is not reflected there.
Folks, the issue of land inventories proposes a record of the human on the planet earth, not necessarily their relationship to the original nature of the planet, but including their transformations and today, so many aspects of human behavior and how it transforms the planet and themselves, is discussed in this comprehensive inventory.
It is an overarching theme that proposes a record / photographic inventory of everything that the human being is faced with what to create, destroy, and transform lives.
The fashion, nature, surfing, poverty, love, beauty, dreams, the abstract, formal / geometric, urban, all aspects are identified and related to the human and the world affected by it.
Both in projects such as Flickr, we're getting beautiful images.
Understood. The simple matter is that none of the images conveys a 'sense of urgency' lives and that is reflected in the world today with so much at so many different going forward. It missed a great opportunity here to lead and nurture an important debate where the photo should have a more important role.
Lack of alignment on the subject and there is always an explanation by the trustees, but honestly missed images that represent the theme in the sending or the trustees were in sameness that in the last two years has been presenting in this country. Wank, was quite accurate in his comment, not that I agree fully, but is well founded. I loved the PEF 2009 and expect further opening to this year, but so far I see is a widespread call for a chain on your way to click. There is nothing wrong in this concept, but an event such as PEF to create conflicts, compare styles, schools, and finally photographic culture of all parts and not being tied to a single line. Abs
Our repressed that we, huh. The issue is not the most wonderful thing in the world, in my opinion, and therefore think it's great that the candidates sent pictures that have nothing to do with the obviousness of the subject. Speaking of the environment is not only talking dolphin, we are immersed in the environment as social agents, which creates social relations and determines the other one and vice versa. City and concrete is also the environment, I feel to warn. I liked the final choice, and I think that is to say that I know and I'm not friends with any of them, found the valiant and interesting selection by the organization of the festival.
This is not about dolphins, sunset and beautiful waterfalls, while also showing our planet but the concept of current school Luiza. Contemporary fashion is hiding everything and takes everything. There should be an event of this magnitude between the COMPARATIVE trends, schools. Selection bold, in your opinion, but since I'm not repressed, about it, but it would be bold and merge with it to create comparisons, which seems so far away. Show jobs that plunge deeper into the problems we x city, people kill x, x we refuse, we x water, animal waste x, x we animals, etc., in all forms when registering and this test put out all schools. Details of the theme is wonderful and allows numerous interpretations with the obvious one that should exist if it was mentioned. What is important is the way it is obvious how it is photographed, as relates imagetically in various ways.
Oh, and lest we forget, the point here is not the existence of such contemporary images, but the persistent lack of zeal of prosecutors with the plurality of cultural aspects of photography. Whether it be adjusted, maladjusted, contemporary or repressed.
Joseph Urban, Wank and others who showed dissatisfaction: Thanks for writing!
I think the way the result was announced on this blog (very short) stay open many doors for conjectures (hypotheses), and I also think that part of you is a wrong understanding of the topic. I was impressed also that without seeing the tests (which you saw was a photo of each) issued an opinion with you so sure. Expect to see the exhibits before they are so absolute!
explain a few things:
1) One of the care we take - all the texts that disclose the site and blog, as well as the explanations that have been requested - was to avoid misunderstanding of the topic. not propose an inventory of fauna and flora, but the planet earth where we live, and sure enough we live in many different ways, which in turn is represented by several others! So much so that over 60% of project proposals were received that addressed the topic so subjective and not objective. I often say that the environment is here, right where we live our lives, our joys and our sorrows with our idiosyncrasies.
2) In my view, very personal, the result is consistent with the time today, where saturated images the photographers are increasingly seeking to articulate their eyes in other ways.
3) Wank, you with your verbal incontinence and his eternal sense of injustice just because it is extremely unfair and discourteous to the organizers, with their fellow winners of the tender and all who think differently from you! You quote people who should be invited already, or worse, who are in this program, as is the case of Dirceu Maués names ... you play without even reading the link right programming. Hang on, folks! Express their opposing opinions or not, but with care and education.
4) Pepe, my friend Pepe, which is the part that is not present at the Festival? We have from the traditional photojournalism Noor and ESP, even the wizards of nature photography and the size of the Marigo Candisani. We have the contemporary, the dilettantes, miners, Rio, the Brasilia, the Para, the people of Pernambuco, the French, Italians, Dutch, Portuguese, Mexicans, Argentines ... Man, Pepe .... to be diverse lacked what, you?
I agree with much of the Wank Carmo wrote, and I believe I have identified in several respects. Nor sent work, I believe that increasingly the picture is closing in poetry too "contemporary", subjective, and so losing a bit of the essence of enchantment, of the issues that lead to thinking through what is being shown and not just of the "thousands" of interpretations that can have from them. That's not bad, but there are many aspects to be explored, that sometimes the conversation becomes constructive than just intellectual, charming and even provocative.
The proposal Inventories of the Earth is an endless wealth, a great magnet for many jobs, I'm really looking forward to seeing all the tests in full. I understand the reasons for each one in this debate but I believe there is no incoherence or inconsistency on the part of the organization of PEF, the theme is really comprehensive but at no time loses its borders, only adds more diversity and generates debates like this.
Regards to all, see you in Paraty and always keeping the elegance.
Iatã, thank you for your attention to comments made here. Demonstrates respect for at least part of the organization to the issues. But I still find the topic too general (in what was said by you, as the subject). I say, every year is the same thing, not only in Paraty, but in most events and competitions promoted in Brazil. The contemporary is already saturating the sights. In all, I would, despite the complaints herein, to give my sincere congratulations for the initiative and courage to organize the event. It only takes a stone tree that bears fruit. But please, do not let evente fall into the ideology of a few, a pan or trend. Hugs!
Thanks for clarifying, do not miss people and I see an effort to show a range of representatives of what is defined as current, in fact reproducing his thoughts "In my view, very personal, the result is consistent with the time today, where saturated Images photographers are increasingly seeking to articulate their eyes in other ways. " , Except that I think (personal opinion) that now is the sameness that has been shown in recent years, or rather being imposed as the new way of shooting. She is always displayed, but not with other forms of shooting and at this point that I hold and that he would like to see being exposed to the so-called abstract, modern treatment pasteurized, highly saturated common beside the classical aesthetics, the behavior refined to reproduce what you see when shooting as a means of comparison. I find it interesting when it creates the opportunity to observe all the forms together, regardless of personal taste, but as an analytical power to see styles in the same space. That's what I think, is what I'm missing. Contemporaries have nothing to do with the geographical origin to which you refer, the concept dilatant amateur is logical that we have at the festival after all is to them that there are events of its kind. No matter where they come with few exceptions are in the same school, look for other ways that are no other ways but the repetitiveness of that already existed with some success. So I insist that everyone should live in the same space. Bresson and Ansel Adans are also copied, like so many others like Turner or Peter Constantine Manos, one that at the beginning of his career shows that the current choices are not as current as you think. I question the lack of presence for comparison, only that.
"Man, Pepe missing to be diverse .... what, you?" unkind of you come to think so, say write. I'm no artist, I do not pretend to be called to an event where you do not have representation, I am a photographer nothing more than that, but I am consistent and much applauded version FIP 2009 - the best of all and I have every right to express myself without be personal, but I'm your friend so I spoke, but did ask spread for comparison and not as a child who feels offended by not being remembered or contested.

"Wank, você com sua incontinência verbal e seu sentimento de eterno injustiçado acaba por ser extremamente injusto e deselegante com os organizadores, com os seus colegas ganhadores do edital e com todos que pensam diferente de ti! Você cita pessoas que deveriam ser convidadas que já foram, ou pior ainda, que estão nesta programação, como é o caso do Dirceu Maués… você joga nomes ao elo sem sequer ler direito a programação. Calma aí, gente! Manifestem suas opiniões contrárias ou não, mas com cautela e educação."
______________________________________________________________________________
Nada foi jogado ao leu, e vosmecê sabe bem disso que esta coisa está guetizada dentro desta insistência de cultuar o efêmero, desconectado com a realidade planetária que o tema sugere. Pluralize os encontros em que você está envolvido abrindo para o Brasil inteiro, meu caro. Tem mais: as exposições escolhidas não batem com tema e vosmecê sabe bem disso. Estou cobrando com todas as letras que convoquem o Brasil inteiro para participar de todos os encontros dentro ou fora do eixo. E este pedido, este alerta, faço a todos que estão envolvidos em curadorias, etc.
Mais: e repito que, o único trabalho que emociona é do caro Leonardo Costa Braga. A título de sugestão para o ano que vem, sugiro que convidem os homens e mulheres que fincaram as colunas da fotografia brasileira, como Boris Kossoy e outros para que vários segmentos possam da fotografia possam entender o que é fotografia de verdade.
E lanço a pergunta para o encerramento de minha participação neste assunto: por que esta comissão não mudou o foco de escolha dos trabalhos que estivessem em sintonia com a realidade caótica? Se não conseguir responder eu faço agora. Porque sinto um crivo ideológico contra a fotografia engajada com os verdadeiros inventários que vários documentaristas o fazem dia a dia; segundo a segundo; agora!
Não sou contra os experimentalismos, quem quiser que o faça, mas por favor, não insista em afirmar que as obras escolhidas – com exceção de uma – dizem alguma coisa com a situação caótica da terra, porque todos nós sabemos que o resultado de um bom e honesto inventário sobre a terra, nos levaria a ver a verdade que documentaristas comprometidos com a sobrevivência da terra estão fazendo: o caos! E seria isso que enviaria para a comissão se já não soubesse do resultado…
Como reflexão deixo o link de um verdadeiro inventário: aí está http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqxENMKaeCU Home! Do fotógrafo e ambientalista francês Yann Arthus-Bertrand. Está aí, um convidado de peso para estar presente no Paraty em Foco, para falar de um verdadeiro inventário sobre o planeta terra. Agora, imagina vosmecê, que espetáculo não seria, se ao lado dele estivessem dezenas de documentaristas brasileiros e milhares de crianças aprendendo a fazer o melhor: documentar, denunciar e combater com arte, os porcos que inundam a terra brasilis de lixo e ainda queimam vossas florestas, a começar pelas ações de anuência desta porca república comprometida com o capital devastador e longe de atender as ansiedades de um país que já respira com dificuldade em vários pontos dele… Os fatos são alarmantes! Não vou nem entrar no mérito da fome…
Espero que este meu comentário não sirva para puxar a orelha de ninguém, pois não é este o meu papel e nem serei deselegante, nem pensar tal coisa, mas sirva para uma boa reflexão, pois, aqui, acima da linha do equador, as pessoas também pensam…
“A utopia é a véspera da mudança”
I sent a project to call that approach was made on some of the main problems of Amazonia: forest clearing, demarcation of indigenous lands and livestock feed. I was not expecting even if it was okay because I recognize that the project was not formatted and argued with excellence. But I hoped to see works that addressed the most pressing issues, goals and more impactful.
Although the topic to be subjective and open to varying interpretations, I miss the "simple" record of reality, images that tell what we are doing to our planet. I think it would be a good opportunity to encourage and discuss photography more engaging and therefore no less artistic.
Hello all,
This is my first close contact with the event "Paraty in Focus", because I got involved with photography recently (2008), and that context is all very new to me.
I have been to Paraty in May/2010 participating in the exhibition "The Power of Beauty", organized by the Belvedere Gallery.
I think an event like Paraty in Focus deserves great admiration and respect for the pioneer, paving the way for a whole generation that can exchange ideas, experiences, impressions and opinions.
Along these lines, the proposal would be nice to know those who want to share.
For those interested, the project that I directed the notice can be seen in the wall of my address on facebook:
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1000004764 ...
I am loving all this, but reading the comment of olive talita, I must comment: reality does not register.
a photographer whose aim is "to portray reality" will go through life without understanding why it did not happen.
kisses in all.
Well, I was avoiding giving my Pitaco, but it's stronger than me ...
The Iatã is right in saying that the photos do not reflect the complete work, which will only be seen in its entirety in Paraty, is also right in saying that the topic is broad and allows interpretaçãoes subjective, which is great.
On the other hand I fully understand when Pepe says that would be a good counterpoint, a comparator, and that participants could have Paraty plural references.
Wank, I understand your position regarding the "decoupling" of the issue, but disagree about the universality which was a constant concern of the board for months, there are guests from all over Brazil, Latin America, Europe.
Well diversified.
I see the festival maturing every year, and has participated from the beginning as a spectator after speaker, I think last year's edition was very, very good, and this year will be better.
Luiza, who disagree are repressed by that? I do not understand your definition.
Hugs, conciliatory,
Clicio
Pepe, Wank, Clício, Urban, Talita and other panelists.
I'll try to keep the weather Clício proposed by the conciliator, but I'll be very clear: It is true that Paraty in Focus is emphasizing contemporary languages at the expense of documentary photojournalism's or any other event that many of our photography is.
1) The exhibition occupies the Zoom Gallery, home of the event and the Festival's Main Gallery of the photographer Maureen Bisilliat, "Black Skin" first photographer's work exhibited in 1966 at MAM.
2) The largest exhibition of the Festival is "Consequences" of photojournalism agency Noor, and treats the environment
3) One of the biggest stars of this year is not even a professional photographer, Klink Amyr
But I think we should stop creating unnecessary boundaries to the development of our photography. Art, paper, advertising, everything is confused, everything blends together a greatest moment, the photograph.
And let us also clear that the jury chose what they thought best, and like any jury that is also sovereign.
I saw the work and can say they are very good and certainly you and the audience will really like the solutions that were found in the proposed "Occupied Spaces"
Finally I think the debate valid, but remember that as you speak of counterpoint that occurs every day of the Festival, each table a different universe, just enjoy the show!
Pepe, sorry if I was unkind to you, but admit that more diverse programming that not even the PEF 2010 Brazilian Carnival! It has a bit of everything.
Wank, its rum is guaranteed! Until September!
Iatã, his answer was very clear especially when you put that "make it clear also that the jury chose what they thought best, and like any jury that is also sovereign." Debate that is not it?
I'm almost able to confirm my trip to Paraty to give the general content of the work. I think fair to review positions after knowing what is there. there!

Thanks for the explanations Iatã!
Hugs!
Aiaiai only see huge egos and little self-esteem (little men) .. Wow, how much scholarship! .. everyone has the right, no one ... Puaj.
"You create a general theme and then have a great excuse to soften the criticism."
I think this phrase well defined. I expected much more of the projects selected by the convening _ thought it would be a chance to see exhibitions really good, without being that guy who was invited to be "famous" [but not necessarily good photographer], by shooting 50 years ago [but not necessarily good photographer], because they live outside the country [but not necessarily good photographer] or for being "a friend of the boss" [but not necessarily good photographer]! And if my analysis [and colleagues] was made based on only one image of the test, I'm sorry, so the picture you chose "wrong" to post here and since published, there is room for interpretation of each!
The Paraty in Focus is getting "business" too. A pity! I've been in the past just for the pleasure to rediscover classmates and meet new photographers, for the projects and exhibitions in itself, always left to be desired. Mistakenly thinking that my call would change this scenario, choosing fairly exhibitions!
The day I consider good photographs are not necessarily those made by people "famous" or-decade career, will have the opportunity to appreciate works best! Or, on the day that the public can judge what is good and suggest programming, PEF will no longer be the "pot" that has become! When the "same figurines" are behind everything! Again, A PENALTY!
I'm hoping that all this will change in future editions of the PEF!
I am republishing my post I did yesterday and that was removed for some unknown problem. The blog is having some technical problem? Well then I'll republicar.Certo? I hope not short ... Thanks again!

2) The largest exhibition of the Festival is "Consequences" of photojournalism agency Noor, and treats the environment
3) One of the biggest stars of this year is not even a professional photographer, Amyr Klink. "
They are familiar names and I love the work of two, even, but guests. Moreover, and invited. By the way both are from Sao Paulo, is not it? And then remember that back end over the participation of photographers from other parts of the country. Or engineers think the rest of Brazil does not photograph. But the question that everyone understood very well was the sovereign choice made by the commission, which does not match the theme. I think everyone understands, is not it ...??
"But I think we should stop creating unnecessary boundaries to the development of our photography. Art, paper, advertising, everything is confused, everything blends together a greatest moment, the photograph. "
No one has created borders because it already exists this incident made it clear that we stand in our own and not try to blockade the axis that decided to give place to the ephemeral, the picture that does not thrill, this thing ... Most contemporary has explained everything very well, previously and I will not repeat.
"And let us also clear that the jury chose what they thought best, and like any jury that is also sovereign."
It is true that the jury is sovereign, but does not mean that this is the best way to represent a theme, a beautiful way - Inventories of the Earth - as well .... I will not repeat, because most everyone has explained and understood very well the question . So what I can do is ignore even these notices and put it on the head, who wants to show what we want to be seen, look for or create your space. As we always have, for decades ...
"Pepe, sorry if I was unkind to you, but admit that more diverse programming that not even the PEF 2010 Brazilian Carnival! It has a bit of everything. "
It has, because Brazil escangalhado not be shown nor discussed. Just vistar this link to be clear that there will not. Soy threatens the Xingu Indigenous Park is there http://www.socioambiental.org/esp/soja/2.shtm That is, I am obliged to leave one more suggestion, saying, that you repeat the dose on the use of the subject environment, and show the world the true face of human degradation, which, of course, is well documented, including photographs, biologists, anthropologists and environmentalists reputation clean, colorless party. This would be an ideal team to be part of this table discussions and view the chaos that is just a few meters from the Indian villages, so that the world saw that the planet Brazil, is coordinated by cynics. That feeds into a fear of confrontation with members of this republic connected with the elite that poisons what is left of biodiversity? I do not think this is ... More: INPA staff! The ladies have a wonderful scientific work and fought for that damn cane which ended with the forest, did not come away with the Amazon forest, in fact, well documented by Ameris Paolini, Paula Sampaio and many others. Here we have a lot of eyes like these knaveries and yes, they estivem there, too. I think that was clear, right?
"Wank, its rum is guaranteed! Until September! "
I'm picky. Only special rum drink because my smell and taste of cloves and cinnamon ... you like?
The conciliator Clicio Barroso, hope you can visit our region to make an assessment rested, calm about what is being produced in Amazonia and can say to the axis through its balanced view, which does not give more to ignore the production in the corners distant. I know some guys who are shooting in Maranhão well and follows the booklet documenting the reality without changing the focus to look Hipster; in Acre as much, and so on ...
I hope this is a farewell ... even, and let a sentence to reflect on the importance of in-depth discussion on the continuation of man on earth that has been inventoried rapidly, but the capital without a country, that turned into a pigsty ideological where what counts is profit and the silence of some conniving.
"Of all the means of expression, photography is the only fixing forever the precise and transitory instant. We photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and once disappeared, there is no mechanism in the world able to get them back again. We can not disclose or copy a memory. "Henri Cartier-Bresson
wank, really should have been a technical problem. I want to make clear that comments do not delete elements, right?
Leo,
I would not have said it better, just as you think
Dear all,
I do not know if my tone is conciliatory, or read in a tone of conciliation, but do not want to write only by the controversy.
I resolve to write to congratulate not only the choice of works, as well as to highlight the participation of the organizer of a festival of this size to make clear his view and establish a dialogue with all who scored here - write, then, to find that some were left are out of the comments.
One is the ego dear friend!
Comentários sem moderação são louváveis em uma plataforma que se pretende completa e fico extremamente feliz de ver que o blog do PEF atingiu esse objetivo. Penso apenas que reservar 20 minutos para escrever por aqui, podem ou devem ser acompanhados de outros 20 minutos de reflexão antes de apertar o "submit Comment". Termos como gostar ou não gostar, pensei que seria assim ou assado, isso me faz rir ou não me emociona, não são argumentos válidos e construtivos, a não ser que estejamos em uma mesa de bar exercendo o tudismo – essa corrente de pensamento onde imaginamos que somos PHD em tudo, mesmo sem ter estudado uma linha sobre o assunto.
O PEF é feito por gente que vive fotografia, estuda, respira, debate e, mais do que isso, abre-se em um canal como esse para ouvir seus interlocutores. Que acham de aproveitar isso de verdade?
Wank, onde estão os fotógrafos esquecidos do Norte? Adoraria ver os trabalhos deles também, mesmo que ainda não estejam no PEF. Manda uns links aqui para que todos possamos ampliar nossas referências?
Pepe, você não acha que essa linha de fotografia que "falta" no PEF já não está amplamente difundida e enraizada no imaginário do que é a fotografia brasileira? (essa fotografia que criaria o conflito, o contraponto, a fotografia social? E que fique registrado que eu bebo muito dessa fonte e dessa água sempre beberei)
Will, o Paraty está comercial demais? Eu estava entendendo pelos comentários feitos aqui que ele estava comercial de menos. Um workshop de iluminação de estúdio, nú ou como fotometrar podem ser encarados como comerciais por, em teoria, abarcarem mais público do que um workshop conceitual como o do João Castilho, ou curatoriais como os do Armando Prado e Eder Chiodetto (eu adoraria fazer qualquer um dos 3 e não tenho nada contra os workshops que citei como mais comerciais, inclusive já os fiz!).
Parabenizarei sempre um festival por pensar a frente, por dialogar além da sua aldeia, por nos colocar em contato com figuras centrais no panorama fotográfico mundial sem que para isso eu tenha que gastar fortunas viajando para a Europa!
E mesmo assim, como bem colocado pelo Iatã, o festival não abandona nenhum público e traz atrações que mostrem o pluralismo de produção de um país continental.
Não temos representantes de todos os cantos do país? Pois é, nem sempre se consegue pluralizar tanto quanto se quer, mas que se tenha em mente que o PEF é um festival que está em sua 6a edição! Vejam quanta gente já passou por aqui, quantas entrevistas boas pudemos assistir no auditório, ou pela web! Que processo fantástico é o de construir um festival como esse.
E daí eu volto ao ego para lembrar que, ao invés de bradar discordâncias enfurecidas, não seria melhor estabelecer um diálogo de fato, civilizado, calcado em análises, em referências, para muito além do gostar ou desgostar? Trocando em miúdos, que tal ajudar na construção de um festival melhor a cada ano?
Genérica é a falta de propostas, de retorno, de procedimento construtivo quando se usa unicamente de agressidade – não o tema central de um festival que pode e deve ter leituras subjetivas, poéticas e contemporâneas.
Pepe
Suas considerações são pertinentes. Seria bacana identificar os anseios desta galera que você conhece em uma grande mesa redonda, né?
Léo Caobeli, Iatã e demais,
Por Léo Caobeli "Pepe, você não acha que essa linha de fotografia que "falta" no PEF já não está amplamente difundida e enraizada no imaginário do que é a fotografia brasileira? (essa fotografia que criaria o conflito, o contraponto, a fotografia social? E que fique registrado que eu bebo muito dessa fonte e dessa água sempre beberei)"
- Pode estar difundida se pensarmos que a linha deve ser, digamos, Bressuniana, ou dentro de uma cobertura social, mas não é disso que sinto falta e vou esclarecer pela última vez, meu comentário se refere unicamente as escolhas da convocatória com intuito de ocupar os espaços definidos pela organização. É uma opinião pessoal de alguém que vai apreciar os trabalhos escolhidos, mas que observa pelas fotos divulgadas (e se foram é porque são significativas) que as escolhas se prenderam as imagens contemporâneas e ao meu ver faltou um bom trabalho jornalistico e também um outro bom trabalho em PB – pode ser que não tenham sido remetidos, fato que lembrei em meio primeiro post. Dos cinco trabalhos – dois deles seriam uma "releitura" de trabalhos como Claudia Jaguaribe vêm desenvolvendo mais recentemente, ou de Christine Burrill que por sua vez seguia aos passos de David Hockney em suas experiências com fotocolagem. Ok é mais recente uns 30 anos pelo menos. Os outros três seguem uma formula mais urbana com enfase ao tratamento, mas isso é mais recente. Não sou contra esses trabalhos, pelo amor dos meus clicks. Sou contra só ser eles a ocupar os espaços. Gostaria de ao sair de uma fotocolagem e encontrar imagens mais jornalisticas e depois um clássico em PB para em seguida dar uma guinada e ver as verterdes mais contemporâneas, esse é o contraponto que digo esse é o meu desejo, é meu comentário ou critica, como queiram, e que não vai acontecer em relação as exposições oficiais e com isso se perde uma grande oportunidade de mostrar à um publico de aproximadamente 80% as diversas formas de se fotografar. Os outros 20% que já se aprofundam no tema conhecem esse contraponto e talvez lá entre os 80% exista mais um percentual que também conhece, mas o festival teria a chance de mostrar esse universo a pelo menos metade dos visitantes que estarão em Paraty durante o evento.
Não se trata de apontar e mencionar panelas, famosos, antigos, etc. Aliás vejo no resultado da convocatória algo contrario a isso. A mesmice que comento é, novamente, na semelhança dos trabalhos escolhidos.
Iatã, repito e sei que você bem me entendeu, meu cometário trata somente da visão que os jurados deram a convocatória, não ao evento como um todo e lamento, pois acredito que esse poderia ser mais diversificado. Acredito que entre os escolhidos para outras atividades há muito a se aprender durante as mesas, entrevistas e no dia a dia da mesa de bar com uma boa cerveja gelada. Os WS têm nomes consagradas e se lá estão é porque justificam pelo que fazem a muito tempo e são referencias em suas atividades.
Há cometários que falam de recalque ou ego inflado, etc, as pessoas que aqui cometam, se expõem são amantes da fotografia, muitos frequentam grupos de estudos, praticam a fotografia profissional ou amadora e desejam sempre o melhor para a fotografia. Prestigiamos as ações e temos o direito de expressar nossas opiniões e sabemos que essas devem estar bem fundamentadas exatamente para não serem qualificadas de recalcadas ou por serem fruto de egos ofendidos.
Achei válido as manifestações fundamentadas, achei bárbaro a presença do mentor maior, Iatã, ao se manifestar colocando seu ponto de vista – mesmo achando que esse que escreve poderia estar sendo critico por não ser lembrado. Sou critico por que também sei aplaudir quando os acertos acontecem e tenho aplaudido muito mais que criticado ao Paraty em Foco que tornou o sonho de Giancarlo Mecarelli em um grande evento de nossa paixão comum.
eo meu browser que resolveu me complicar????
O fim do segundo parágrafo tinha recebido uma modificação e teria ficado assim:
"escrevo, então, por achar que algumas coisas foram deixadas de fora dos comentários"
Senão a frase não fazia o menor sentido
Caros,
Ta tudo certo, é que estamos todos de cabeça quente, aquecimento global atingindo de cheio. A convocatória foi um teste e vocês verão que foi acertado, o material vai ficar espetacular. A nossa proposta, coordenação e conselho, foi o de promover ocupações temporárias (muito em função da constatação de que Paraty não dispõem de espaços expositivos tradicionais o que sufoca o crescimento do Festival). O simples fato de chamar na convocatória as pessoas para ocupar o espaço já dava uma direcionada para trabalhos menos conservadores. Dai que o resultado é um espelho do material enviado, boa parte dos trabalhos entregues apostavam por um viés mais subjetivo que objetivo.
Acho o debate válido, vamos no próximo Paraty voltar ao Tema "Contemporâneo or not contemporâneo" deve dar um bom debate. Espero que não tão tenso quanto este!
ai, sério. ainda não entendi onde essa discussão quer chegar. vou aproveitar que estou bêbada e pedir: alguém me explica por que vocês reclamam tanto?
beijos!
Palavras demais, imagens de menos…
pois é, aqui só tem 4 fotografias que devem representar 5% do que serão as exposições desses artistas juntos… não saio de Paraty sem ficar 1 hora, sem muita gente por perto, na Traço vendo as fotos de Leonardo Braga. Essa série deve ser linda!
Se sobrar água e gentileza no nosso planeta, estarei feliz!
Até o PEF!
With havin so much written content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My website has a lot of completely unique content I've either authored myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my agreement. Do you know any ways to help reduce content from being stolen? I'd definitely appreciate it.
