观“Lomo Yuanmin 那么元敏”摄影展

seeshot — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 13:50:16 +0000

黄昏，路过田子坊，顺道看了“Lomo Yuanmin 那么元敏”摄影展。展厅不大，我是唯一的观众，静静地，与黑白照片中的市井人物一一照面。熟悉的元素，不同的构成，元敏先生用镜头的语言将上海草根阶层的千姿百态呈现在我的眼前。与多年前的《苏州河》系列相比，更多了份趣味和洒脱。

照片中的影像，加上反光中的相框，又一次视觉元素的整合。

突然冒出的空调维修工，成为了画面中的人物。

试用poladroid 0.96r0

朋友从日本带回一台Fuji instax mini 7S 送给女儿，结果以波拉片太贵不能浪费为由被我揩油收入防潮柜中。其实是自己很喜欢这种立拍立现的感觉，又省去了后期的麻烦，与数码相比，这更是一张物理上客观存在的真正的照片。那么老古董的东西在今天看来，很fasion，很lomo。而曾经的波拉片老大宝丽来poladroid实体早已不复存在，却也与时俱进地玩起了数码poladroid。把一张照片往虚拟的Poladroid上一扔，随着一声马达转动的机械声，一张宝丽来照片从胶片槽吐出，图像慢慢显现，就好像真的拍摄完成了一张宝丽来相片。如果用鼠标按住照片左右快速移动，还会加快显影的时间，感觉很不错噢。这无疑让很多P迷们又重温了当年按下快门时的满足。贴几张用此软件试验的片子上来，原片是用黑莓手机拍的，原图就在楼下，再来看看poladroid的效果吧，是不是很复古呢。从http://www.poladroid.net 可下载到最新的版本，目前的最新版本0.96r0。

影展：LOMO YUANMIN 那么元敏

LOMO YUANMIN – SO YUANMIN

Far ahead of 2010’s World Expo, from September to November 2009 the Beaugeste Gallery has chosen to present the most Haipai of Shanghai photographers, universally recognized and respected by his peers (*), Lu Yuanmin (born in 1950) and his most creative work so far : his vision of Shanghai through the viewfinder of his Lomo camera.

Starting in 2006 and for two years Lu Yuanmin, the most humanist and most classical, the most intimate photographer in China, who has been relentlessly photographing his Longtang fellowmen and his beloved Suzhou Creeks, has given up his old Seagull camera for a small Lomo. He then set out for a unprecedented creative exercise, carried away by the ease and the freedom brought by this semi gadget. He only stopped the Lomo shooting after he had used up his stock of over 500 rolls of China-made negatives and could no longer find any supply as the factory had closed down.

The exercise resulted in an astonishing “film noir” rich in tension and intensity, a very “black” vision of Shanghai in the sense of a thriller – (we remember Lu Yuanmin first job was projectionist in a cinema in 1968).

In this movie all sorts of characters form a strangest parade: mysterious Shanghai girls hiding their identity behind fancy sunglasses, couples in love or in fight, an elf-like girl picking her nose, an angel-like girl spread her wings, a bunch of dogs take part in this parade: two of them compete in lifting legs, a giant poodle threatens to devour the lens of the camera, a grand-ma lost in translation talking to a plastic doggie…the multiple faces of our microcosm revealed through the Lomo’s dark rings.

Lu Yuanmin was born under the sign of the tiger, says Professor Lin Lu, famous critic, but he is kind and gentle as a lamb. What we see in his Lomo series are the claws of a hungry wolf, the eyes of a lynx on the prowl, and the mocking irony of an alley cat that is watching us from above yet with a touch of tenderness.

To paraphrase Jack Kerouac’s introduction to Robert Frank’s The Americans, we can say: “the humor, the sadness and joy, the EVERYTHING-ness, the Shanghai-ness, it’s all in these pictures”.

Lomo Yuanmin, it is so Yuanmin.

(*) Lu Yuanmin was awarded the Shafei Prize in 2008, the most authoritative photography awards in China.

LOMO YUANMIN那么元敏

2006年起的两年时光，这位中国最人本、最经典、最亲近主题的摄影师，曾经因为拍摄他最熟悉的弄堂里的上海人和他最喜欢的苏州河而出名的陆元敏，放弃了他的海鸥而选择了一个小LOMO——虽带点儿时尚味道。

因为爱上了LOMO的简单、轻松与自由，陆元敏玩了一场前所未有的创作游戏。他一共拍了五百多卷国产胶卷，直到生产胶卷的工厂倒闭了，他再也卖不到新货才肯罢休。拍摄的结果给大家带来一个震撼——一部充满张力的作品。通过LOMO的黑圈子，我们看到一部上海“黑色小说”般的电影。我们不会忘记陆元敏最初还是个电影放映员。通过他的LOMO，街头上的狗狗撒尿芭蕾舞，躲在墨镜后面的上海妹妹，白翅天使般的小女孩，挖鼻子的小精灵，恋爱或吵闹的情侣，带着面具的小区大亨，对着史努比发愁的阿姨，都打扮成电影人物出现在镜头前。

著名评论家林路说过，陆元敏生于虎年，却有羔羊一般的善良。但在LOMO YUANMIN里，我们看到他对猎物虎视眈眈，像如饥似渴的张开爪子的狼，或高高在上的夜猫子对着我们人间的荒唐冷嘲热讽。

让我们借用雅克·凯鲁阿克在罗伯特·弗兰克的《美国人》序言里的一句话形容之：幽默、伤感与欢乐，千景万象，一种上海味道，都融在这些照片里了。

这就是《那么元敏》。

(*) 陆元敏获2008年沙飞奖，中国最有权威性的摄影奖。

汉源书店 – BB8900

seeshot — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 14:32:10 +0000

汉源书店，位于幽雅的绍兴路，隔壁就是老洋房餐馆（曾是杜月笙送给四姨太的私人会所），美术出版社、文艺出版社等也与之毗邻。昨天路过的时候，正好碰上拍摄奇瑞汽车的广告片，驻足观望了一会，便遁入书店，饮茶看书。28元，一杯蛋奶冰蜜茶，奶香浓郁，新鲜的蛋黄映衬着白色厚重的奶泡，让人垂涎欲滴。当我点单的时候，服务小姐兴奋地对一位中年厨房间阿姨喊：有人要点你做的蛋奶冰蜜茶了。看来这个选择是何等地明智，味道很赞，别无分号。

关于lomo-我的lomo我做主

偶尔路过进贤路，发现了一家新开的lomo店，各种型号的lomo相机一应俱全。原本以为lomo只是一群时髦爱好者的小打小闹，没想到早已做成了产业。当商业摄影以追求色彩还原的精准、镜头制造的精密为衡量标准时，lomo却以无法预知、充满奇思怪想的色彩表现（偏色）吸引了时尚达人的视线。只是当一种摄影的方式添加了过多的时尚元素，加上胶卷的成本、打印成本、扫描成本，lomo变成了一种高成本的奢侈运动或者艺术行动。

lomo，在我看来这是一种随心所欲记录生活的方式，一种生活的态度，一种文化的传递，一种情感的表达。lomo何必非要lomo相机呢，单反、卡片机，甚至手机，只要你有这份心情，随时随地地shot吧～～～下面的照片全部用blackberry8900拍摄，有lomography照片展览的，也有街头的随拍，我的lomo我做主。
