street as the transitional space

ROBERT WALKER:COLOUR IS POWER

Being inspired by R.W I've made decision about comparing his funky style with idea of portrait.For adding something extra into my work,I've chosen NIGH&MOVEMENT.

WNYC Street Shots: Bruce Gilden

From Pop Culture to the Street

Being inspired by Popular Culture,in other words "vulgar" and ''low" totality of ideas...Hip Hop Culture...Street Art, I have looked on Robert Walker work,who developed a keen interest in STREET PHOTOGRAPHY.

An aggressively bright yellow taxi hopes to catch the attention of a harassed city dweller...A window display of theatrical complexity suggests a microcosm of the metropolis itself...Graffiti-spattered walls and vehicles might well be confused with the bright frames of comic-books...These are the targets of Robert Walker's extraordinary photography - the contemporary, universal meglopolis, in all its crazy colour, its dissonance and chaos.
