I fell in love with Crewdson’s photographic work when I was a Uni student in an Art college; BA photography in UK. I have searched so many his photographic work by Internet, by libraries, and I have written about his photography for my university final Essay. His photography is the most beautiful and interesting work I have ever seen. I am going to be like that kinds of photographer. By the way, my icon image was made by myself. My photography work. Anyway, I will try my best to be an artist photographer. Thank you Mr. Crewdson. You are the most favorite artist photographer in the world for me. Respect.
This is great! I saw one of his photos online years ago and it really struck me. Thanks for diving into the details behind him and his work, i was always very curious about it but couldn't find much online back then
Any art critic that doesn't see a master when they see his work, is the type who would have told Van Gogh he lacked the realism necessary to be among the greats.
I don't know how you could find fault with his work. Besides being technical masterpieces, his work is strongly psychological, and references Hopper and Balthus among others. Maybe because of a lack of people of color, or a lack of disabled or LGBTQ characters? But to that I'd say that it's not about those groups, at least not on the surface. It's about what's below the surface of a white suburban or white small town America, with its hidden or repressed references to people of color and people of other genders or sexual orientations.
Dimitris Katsafouros is far from being "hopelessly arbitrary and ignorant", what he says is never like that but it is good to see others noticed too that his comments about art critics are wrong. Cricizicing is not easy at all. If you do it seriously, it requires serious work. The battle critics-creators is always fake, better fight the seriousness, profesionality, talent... vs. the real easy guys (the inmense majority) Gregory Crewdson is one of the winners here, I very much like what he does. As for the video itself, it is so good that it made me think there has to be also a kind of uncanny valley for youtube videos. It is clearly above average but mistakes like that one puts it below what you may expect when there are 5 or 10 people on the credits (which is what makes me feel while I watch it, though there is only one person here). In any case, it may be a very good starting point to keep searching and watching if watchers know nothing about him.
I think GC is one of the most interesting photographers ever! Like or not his work, one can't deny it's fascinating.
I was lucky today when researching about Crewdson and found your video. Thanks for sharing, high quality work. Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for this video Dimitris. Yes critics are not artists and cannot know better ;)
Thanks for posting this video. I've discovered another amazing photographer works that I very much like now.
he captures existential dread
Great work - thank you.❤
Thanks for watching!

Gregory Crewdson: Brief Encounters (amazing doco)
Wow. What a cool guy. Have to admit i never heard of him before. So, thanks :)
Yeah his work is really cool! Definitely worth getting one of his books!
@@marvelousdecay already in my basket...
thanks for sharing
His work is amazing…it’s like Edward Hopper meets William Eggleston
I've never heard of William Eggleston until now! His work is also amazing!
Πολύ ωραίο βίντεο Δημήτρη! 👏🏻
Great video! Funfact: The Redemption Center is on the left in the photo with Harry's Supermarket
Πέρασε ώρα μέχρι να καταλάβω ότι είσαι Ελληνας, πολλά μπράβο πραγματικά, πολύ ωραίες δουλειές

I feel more like he has a Steven Spielberg influence more than Lynch with his rim lights?
Kinda Roy Andersson for still images
haha yep, funny how it works out. Roy Andersson is creating paintings with his movies and Crewdson is doing movies with his photos.
1st comment!

You completely skipped his work in scale through 4x5 or 8x10 (can't remember). But i feel skipping that part of his work, leaves so much aside.
While I admire Crewdson's work, your prejudice against art critics is hopelessly arbitrary and ignorant.

So you work as an art critic I assume?😂
Very interesting--but what's the point of the annoying, distracting piano?
I can assure you the traffic you cause is not worth this nonsense
waaaaay tooooo much music.... makes you too hard to understand...
