It was pretty impressive to me. Actually I don't know well about photography, but my company JW is studying photography in university so I could study about photography a little from him.
I never know how difficult is taking pictures of people like his pieces. I thought just pushing shutter button can take pictures without any skills, but I was absolutely wrong. To take picture of person, it is needed a lot of conditions. It is also interesting. :)
My first photography exhibition was Robert Kappa, also was held in Korea. It was also really interesting, because he took a lot of pictures during war. It was very dangerous, but he had tried to take all scences he could take that time.
Both of exhibitions are also interesting and impressive but they are a little different as you know.
Karsh took potraits of people mostly. He can handle lights very well. When I see his pics I fell sometimes it looks like 3D graphic. person's face, hands and background are really clear. His skills are impressing me. Kappa was a war photographer. His pictures have pain, sadness, loss and also have hope and faith. Messages of his pictures made me moving.
Anyway, this exhibition is still helding in Seoul. If you are living in Seoul and you want to see his pieces, you should go there.
Pablo Casals, 1954
Audrey Hepburn, 1956These pictures are totally different from real pieces.
These can't show real feelings and textures. You can meet the real Audrey Hepburn in exhibiton.
