Document Summary
Fashionable and new outlook on the modern. Close up on angles and details in objects (buttons and plant) New objectivity or new vision new perspectives and angles on photography at this time. Seeing things inn a new modern way. Seeking out analogies between industry and nature. Looking for abstract patterning in everything, not taking into thought of function. Similarities new perspectives (rodchenko and moholy - nagy were political) renger didn"t have a political vision he was about looking at how the world is. Criticized his work, being art for art sake. Photography had potential for the art for the masses, and that renger was creating art like paintings. Intent and aims are quit different, but similar in ideas of perspectives and looking at things differently. Armed vision disarmed weapon to style, attention to form was radical and used as a weapon but it is really disarmed in the sense of being stripped away from the normal view.
