Max-Zip2's photostream

Light is my biggest addiction and challenge.
I am no fan of the tripod. Most of my work is “Hand Held” and that works for me.
If I favorite your work it is because I think it is brilliant. I do not fav to be polite.

"Adesso credo di sapere che fotografo è Max-Zip2: il fotografo della notte. E' una fotografia, questa, assai difficile. Il controllo del contrasto, ancor prima dell'esposizione, rende questa tecnica fotografica, di difficile controllo. Ricordo l'uso massiccio della pirocatechina, come rivelatore per pellicole, per attenuare l'invadenza delle luci artificiali. Nonostante le attenzioni, sviluppare e poi stampare un notturno, dove insistesse un certo equilibrio, era sempre, o quasi, un'impresa. Per Max-Zip2, evidentemente, non è così. Una delle ragioni risiede, certamente, nell'uso del digitale, però, credo, che il lavoro di post produzione sia intenso. Ma non è questo il punto, anche se credo sia importante parlare anche di questo, il punto è, dicevo, che Max-Zip2, riesce a restituirci atmosfere che, sicuramente, appartengono al bagaglio emozionale di ognuno di noi. Se non fosse ritenuto irriverente, direi che Max-Zip2, è un po il Brassai (mi spiace ma non so mettere i due punti paralleli sopra la i) che vaga nell'etere. Ma, ovviamente, è solo un termine di paragone per spiegare la mia ammirazione per Max-Zip2. Brassai, come sapete, fotografava la Parigi notturna. Riprese di selciati bagnati, lampioni nelle nebbie, passeggiatrici, e viveur con il fumo di sigaro a coprire il volto e con papillon argentati ad incoronare camice bianchissime. Max-Zip2, ci fa vivere, paesaggi industriali, fumanti e, perché no, dove stazionano prostitute di periferie industriali. Insomma, paesaggi senpre suggestivi, dove può nascere, possono nascere, altre storie, oltre quelle dell'alienazione produttiva. Spero che Max-Zip2, approfondisca questo suo argomento, che ritengo interessante, oltre che istruttivo, fotograficamente parlando."

"He can do anything--stark, minimalist, blackandwhite shots of roads, tunnels, towers, broken toys, a pole; achromatic shots of people, everyone in the neighborhood individually seated on stoops and curbs. I like his worldview, his precision, his little bit of devil-may-care. I like all the intellect that shows through all of this. Best, I like the humor driving his entire photostream. It is cogent, potent, persuasive stuff."

"maxzip2 has a wonderful array of photo throughout his photostream. I would saym his best shots are his black and whites. Each of full of emotion that evokes thought. He captures great colors, perspectives and is original. Not only does he have great and interesting photos, he always has something kind to say. :)"
