Joel is my favorite photographer of any genre for one reason: his recognition of the divinity within us. He has a respect for humanity, and it is revealed in his photography. A great man.
respect is the key part, some of his contemporaries and modern street photographers forget/forgot that part and both they and their work comes off as arrogant & self-interested, not with Joel
The small group of NY Artists he mentions are: Garry Winogrand - Visions and Images: Garry Winogrand, 1981 Diane Arbus- Masters of photography - Diane Arbus (documentary, 1972) Tod Papageorge- N/A Ralph Gibson (interview)- Ralph Gibson - Master Fine Art Photographer (one with his work involved)- LM 100 presents Ralph Gibson Lee Friedlander- James Enyeart - UNM Art Museum Distinguished Lecture Series Just for those of you who were interested.
Great communicator huge photographer. In the end photography is a form of art, the ability to communicate your own feelings to tell a story transferred onto a picture. From the moment you are able to communicate what are yours, you succeed. The technique is a secondary little thing to learn.
Yes, maybe his pictures are not remote landscapes or anything like that, but you have to understand that this kind of photography is about the subtle beauty of everyday life. You have to recover your ability to be surprised, nowadays people think they have seen it all and are not impressed by the little things that happen everyday and that's what counts, if you ask me.
You have to trust your instincts. Because your instinct is who you are as an artist. If you follow your instinct every single time you are out and don't question it, you will make a series of photographs that will only be your photographs. Discovering yourself and what you like in photography. Sir, you are a wonderful human being and a true artist !
Very interesting story about ground zero. Well done to capture this. That photography was not allowed only adds to the suspicion that that with this terror attack was something wrong they didn't want to come out
He seems like a very genuine and gentle person, and i think he has a lot of interesting things to say. His enthusiasm and spirituality about photography is really awe-inspiring aswell. Although, i don't really find his photography that interesting, unfortunately.
+Simoto92 His photos highlights the oddity of humans, and from what I understand, it creates a new meaning to a scene by using multiple elements in the photo. :)
He is articulate, with a handful of nice shots. I am sure all of the shots have meaning and impact for him personally, but I am not really impressed with the majority of them. They are standard fare snapshot-esque stuff. I guess you had to be there.. I do like his passion however.
I'd never think of discarding B&W... Colour doesn't show detail like that of B&W... The shadows and definition of the photograph in colour is Simply NOT there!
While I admire Meyerowitz and his work, having grown up in the Sixties and served in the Navy in the same time frame, I disagree with his assessment of America in the Sixties.
I tried to watch the video twice, but both fail to complete. I loveee his photos on the Instagram page, but the photos he picks here are just hard to feel. And he talks a bit too much. Come on, just let 's the photos say.
The sincerity, the compassion, the love and truth of life are shown, together with his photos, in his presentation. Thanks Joel.
Absolutely wonderful. His ability to communicate his passion and love for photography is amazing.

Wonderful tour of life in these moments. Inspiring and thought moving words to carry on.

Thank you sir!
😻😻😻
I'm very very humbled!
Such a beautiful talk, thank-you for making this available for us to watch.
Excellent! Narrative Joel, superbly brilliant, in contrast to our sometimes, flawed world
Joel has an ability to connect feelings to actions with words like I've not seen in many artists at all, if any.
Stunning, simply stunning. Thank you, Joel.
Love, peace, and compassion will be the norm some day!
We look forward to that day!
Fantastic talk and photographic journey

It's quite spiritual, it's art.
well explained! he sees beauty in the mundane life which we have to relearn constantly, to be amazed by things we see almost everyday.
do you do photography and do you post it anywhere? would love to connect
Great work Joel, you were there when the world needed you. 👌
Meeting with the photographer Joel Meyerowitz - Milan 2013/10/28
50 years of photography...wow!
It's so amazing, beautiful work of art
I stopped the video to comment: Excellent presenter. I believe ALL his words.
Semplicemente straordinario.

I can watch this hundreds of times. So much experience condensed in just an hour. A masterclass in photography !
Very compelling and very humbling narrative...
Absolutely wonderful. no comment. 34 dislike ??? for what ???
This is what photography is all about, at the beginning of it, and at the edge of it.
Joel is the Steve Jobs of photography. Talks just like him. Passionate and thoughtful
Awesome, thanks for this
Fantastic talk, thank you!
Incredibly interesting, thank you for the upload.

+Simoto92 i agree
+Simoto92 I think his photos are a bit more subtle in touch and taste, and may be everyone's cup of tea which is fine! :)

Well it's not like pictures from big landscapes or anything like that I think it's much more about the subtle beauty of everyday life.
大师不是一朝练成的，虽然英语听不太懂，还是坚持看下来，通过照片获益匪浅。感受最深的是很多人物都带场景和环境，和国内单纯拍人很大不同。
감사합니다
wonderful
"HP CONNECTION MANAGER" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)
Awesome talk
Great Video, but maybe it would be an option to erase that basic backround noise 😇😉
I appreciate the presentation, but honestly it was very difficult to study each and every photo in this video.
oh the sound...
I would have loved to have watched this but the constant zooming in and out from the camera op has put me off with 5 mins :(
He is articulate, with a handful of nice shots. I am sure all of the shots have meaning and impact for him personally, but I am not really impressed with the majority of them. They are standard fare snapshot-esque stuff. I guess you had to be there.. I do like his passion however.
He reminds me of Brassaï, very open-minded in the choice of subject, recording life as it happens.
bit of a misleading thumbnail.
Barney Quinn I agree
Genius, genius, genius
been following his art since the 70's
Inspired
Why the chicken did not fallowed the laser?
снимайте свои огрехи
I'd never think of discarding B&W... Colour doesn't show detail like that of B&W... The shadows and definition of the photograph in colour is Simply NOT there!
he asked in english who needs a translation 😂 maybe the people who needed didnt understand him to say yes
I have lot respect for this photographer, but I am not necessarly impressed by his photography to be honest!!!
While I admire Meyerowitz and his work, having grown up in the Sixties and served in the Navy in the same time frame, I disagree with his assessment of America in the Sixties.
"No photography allowed on ground zero"?!- hm, this might feed the thoughts of the conspiracy theorists.

I think you mean the truth.
I tried to watch the video twice, but both fail to complete. I loveee his photos on the Instagram page, but the photos he picks here are just hard to feel. And he talks a bit too much. Come on, just let 's the photos say.
what is his name on IG page? I dont find him
@@ainakunigelyte IG @joel_meyerowitz
he sounds like a con-man
I don't care for his work
