Momentos Duráveis

"momentos duráveis", brasil, 2011

"Fabricio é um artesão da fotografia. Artesão no sentido de dominar, selecionar e cuidar de todo o processo. Realiza um trabalho com diversas fotografias que no percurso de sua história são significativas. Nascido na Alemanha, esse artista que mora em Dr. Pedrinho dialoga entre dois mundos, que para ele se tornam um, materializados na sua vida, na sua existência. Não deixa suas memórias lá, as trás para dialogarem com o que aqui vive e se coloca numa marca que deixa claro, são parte de sua identidade. Seu auto-retrato está presente, num grande quebra cabeça de fotos individuais que constituem um todo. O processo é tecnológico, mas não deixa por isso de ser artesanal, pois o artista cuida de cada detalhe que se encaixa."

por Carla Carvalho

In English:
"Fabricio is an artisan of photography. Artisan in terms of dominating, selecting and taking care of the entire process. He realizes an art work with different photographs, which are significant in his life's journey. Born in Germany, this artist, who lives in Dr. Pedrinho, dialogues between two worlds, which for him become one, materialized in his life, in his existence. He doesn't let his memories there, but they enter in dialogue to what he lives here and he points the way that makes clear, that they're a part of his identity. His self-portrait is present in a large puzzle of individual photos, which constitute a whole. The process is technological, but without to drop the artisanal aspect, because the artist takes care of every detail that fits."

"A photograph is not created by a photographer. ...

... What they do is just to open a little window and capture it. The world then writes itself on the film. The act of the photographer is closer to reading than it is to writing. They are the readers of the world."

Ferdinando Scianna

Mural do Portal Photos!

I'm a reader of the brazilian "photo magazine - fotografia é arte".
In the last issue (dezembro/janeiro 2010) is a report about the Mural (in english: the wall) from "Photos - O portal da fotografia".

Every week you can send a photo via e-mail to the admins of this page. A jury of pro photographers choose the best ones, which are shown on the mural. But only one of these pictures can win. The prizes for the winner come from the Editora Photos and are magazine subscriptions, books, t-shirts and photo stuff.

Okay, I thought that this is a good chance for me. I chose the picture "the cross III" and sent the picture to the admins.

And tatatatatatata! my picture is in the selection (see: "Semana 314" ("semana" = portuguese for week)) :

Hey it is my first time to participate in this contest!

The winner ("o vencedor") of this week will select in the next days!
