Brian Griffin’s Himmelstrasse at the Magic Gallery

Exciting Opportunity The RPS is looking for outstanding talent to exhibit alongside Brian’s work. For information on what to do next, click here

For Himmelstrasse Brian Griffin Hon FRPS has documented the railway tracks in Poland that transported approximately three million prisoners from around Europe to the Nazi extermination camps during WWII. Himmelstrasse (Heaven Street) was a cynical Nazi joke used to describe the final journey to the gas chambers. Brian’s tranquil images of the railway tracks are hauntingly beautiful and very moving. The Himmelstrasse exhibition will run at the Magic Gallery in Charing Cross station from 20 July for ten weeks.

CAPITAL INTEREST INTERVIEW

BRUCE GILDEN Del Barrett ARPS phoned the great photographer to learn that it has taken him almost fifteen years to do what he is doing now and that much of his work is about “me photographing me”. It’s not every day that you have ‘Phone Bruce Gilden’ on your to-do list, but that’s just what I was lucky to have on mine for today. I must admit, that it wasn’t without a smidgeon of trepidation that I dialled his New York number – I just couldn’t believe that I was about to talk to the great man himself. I’d heard a lot about Gilden – most of it good, but some of it scary - and I didn’t want to get off on the wrong foot, so thought I’d clear the air by asking him what his least favourite interview question was, in case I needed to avoid it. “Do you get a lot of aggro in the streets?” he answers. Thankfully, that’s not on my list, so we can move on with impunity. I start by asking him whether he still has any unfulfilled ambitions, to which he replies “take another good photograph”, although given his stunning portfolio, and his membership of Magnum, that ambition is not really unfulfilled! He adds that he does have other plans and ideas for subjects and places, but he doesn’t want to reveal them yet, in case someone else decides to beat him to it. We then move on to the future of photography and photographs. “It’s a new world”, he says, “in the future, the pictures of today will look like antique-type photography”. We discuss the way that the past influences the present: “A lot of young people don’t know about the history of photography”. Gilden reveals that during the few photography courses he took, students were told not to look at photography books, but he couldn’t resist. “Look at books and you see things that you like and you may be influenced by them. At first, your work may be imitative to some degree, but if you work hard and persevere, hopefully you’ll find your own style. You should build upon what you can learn from the past.” Gilden himself looked to the past for many years with his predominantly black and white work, but he’s now just as comfortable shooting in colour. Moving into colour was quite a departure from his norm, but Gilden sees the need to do things differently as important to keeping his work fresh. And although there are some approaches to his work that he will never change, he does like to venture into new areas. His colour photography was prompted by the use of a Leica S for the project American Made, which comprises a fusion of Gildenesque classics (albeit in colour) interspersed with some unexpected and unlikely subjects (there’s a great video online that shows the results).

LEFT NYC16203

We then discuss two other subjects. The first is his beautifully poignant essay Foreclosures (viewable

here). The photographs speak for themselves, but the commentary firmly contextualises them, reinforcing the feeling of utter hopelessness that the viewer takes from the series. The second is a commission by RATP (the French transportation network) where he depicts urban mobility in five different cities of his choice – Paris, New York, Hong-Kong, Johannesburg and Manchester (details of the book are here). The 41 prints were displayed as nearly 300 enormous posters at stations on the Paris Metro. Although he adapts to change, he says that he doesn’t respond to it that easily and it takes him time to act upon it. I was surprised to learn that it has taken between ten and fifteen years for Gilden to do what he is doing now. He remarks that sometimes you have to go backwards to go forwards and quotes his uncle: “You can lie to the world, but you can’t lie to yourself”. The self plays an important role in Gilden’s photography. He had a tough upbringing. He was hurt a lot. He wants to show that in other people. He comes back to the point that much of his work is “me photographing me”. His photography may look spontaneous to the casual observer – and the subject matter often is - but much planning goes into his work. “You need to plan what you want to do”, he says, “but you also have to be able to react”. He’s been to Haiti 22 times, and, interestingly his series from there are part of his personal portfolio rather than commissions. On his first visits to Haiti, he walked around the cemetery in the morning sunlight until he discovered the outdoor abattoir at La Saline which provided material for future visits. He also photographed in the cemetery, and on one trip during the Mardi Gras he decided that he wanted to do something with people on corners, so he planned for that. He stresses the need to respond to what’s in front of you. And although he may have a plan, he remains flexible.

RIGHT NYC7349

Gilden goes to places he likes. He knows where he’s comfortable and where he’s not – and he’s not just talking about the danger element. If he likes a place, he will go up and down the same streets over and over until he gets what he wants. With the Faces project, sometimes he gets the right portrait on the first take, others take him ten to fifteen minutes, but he gets them (“not every photograph is a good one”, he adds). He points out that he’s intuitive and he has a good bedside manner - and after speaking to him for thirty minutes, I can vouch for that. I ask him what his most challenging assignment has been. “Very expensive jewellery” he replies. Although he plans his work, he doesn’t normally practice, but – as all us girls know - high quality diamonds are very reflective. So he felt that he should buy a ring-flash and rehearse the lighting set-up, which he did; although he admits that, in the end, the best shots were those taken without the ring-light. What’s next? He’s going back to Osaka in Japan, and he knows it will be dangerous - last time, he photographed Yakuza (members of organised crime syndicates) and Bosozuku (members of bike gangs) – but he also knows that he will find interesting people. Watch this space for further details, as this will be the subject of a Kickstarter campaign in the future. Despite my earlier trepidation, I actually found Gilden very easy to talk to as we chatted about various matters – some photographic and some not. Our conversation was peppered with his observations about the local wildlife. He explained that he’d just moved north of the city to an old factory that has 15-foot windows, so he has an excellent vantage point for viewing birds, such as turkey vultures. This seemed a good lead in to asking him about his life outside photography, which he enthusiastically says is his wife, his daughter and his three cats, yes, Bruce Gilden shares his life with three cats. I’m beginning to detect that behind the tough exterior, Gilden might just have a soft centre. He reads a

lot, mainly non-fiction and he’s intrigued by power, enjoying books such as Robert Caro’s The Years of Lyndon Johnson or Doris Kearns Goodwin’s Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln. He describes how the reader really feels as if they have stepped back to the 1860s, which resonates with his work, where we, the viewer, really feel as if we have stepped into the picture. He’s also a sports fan – “fan”, he says, “but not a fanatic”, since these days, he prefers to watch than participate. And disappointing news for wildlife enthusiasts … Gilden will not be giving up the day job to try his hand at bird photography – he just enjoys seeing them outside the windows of his new abode.

CAPITAL INTEREST TOPICAL

Robert Howlett and the Leviathan Launch

ABOVE Bow of the Great Eastern by Robert Howlett © Victoria & Albert Museum

On the birthday of one of the first photographers to earn a successful living from the new medium, Rose Teanby ARPS looks at Robert Howlett’s major work: his images of Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s construction of the massive steamship the Great Eastern, known early on as SS Leviathan, at Millwall. 12


3rd July 2016 sees the 185th birthday of pioneering Victorian photographer Robert Howlett. He only celebrated 27 birthdays, tragically dying in 1858 after becoming one of the most eminent photographers of the 1850s. Queen Victoria commissioned him to photograph her soldiers returning from the Crimean War; Prince Albert asked for his assistance in photographing works of art and most memorably; and Isambard Kingdom Brunel used his expert photographic skills. Howlett was a young man, born in rural Suffolk, with a keen interest in optics and new technology so took to photography as a natural combination of his talents. London was a city of unrivalled opportunity so in 1855 he joined the Photographic Institution at New Bond Street, becoming a partner with publisher Joseph Cundall, working almost exclusively on location. He quickly established himself as a very hard working, gifted photographer and his images were regularly featured in the new weekly publication “The Illustrated Times”, ranging from portraits of famous artists to great engineering creations such as the Royal Albert Bridge at Saltash. This newspaper commissioned Howlett to cover the launch of the SS Great Eastern, Brunel’s massive ship constructed at Millwall, which was the largest movable object on earth in 1857.

ABOVE The Great Eastern: elevation from mid-Thames by Robert Howlett © Victoria & Albert Museum

Brunel intended this gigantic project to be his lasting legacy and had conceived the idea of a ship capable of sailing to Australia without the necessity to refuel making it highly economical, to carry 4000 passengers, to be a fitting world leading symbol of an expanding global empire. The length of the SS Great Eastern prevented a straightforward launch as the Thames was equal in width to her length at low tide, so an innovative, untried sideways launch would be the only method possible. Why build her at this location? The reasons were a combination of experienced, innovative ship builder John Scott Russell, access to a shipyard large enough to accommodate a 692ft vessel, vast quantities of readily available iron and proximity to the naval chain and anchor suppliers. This made the Napier Yard on the Isle of Dogs a fitting place for Brunel’s ambitious final enterprise; until 1836 this area went by the estate

name “Land of Promise”. Howlett started his series of photographs the day before the eagerly awaited launch on November 3rd 1857 unaware that the ship would refuse to move more than four feet and that he would be returning to this same site throughout November, December and into January 1858. But the three month protracted launch enabled Howlett to record a magnificent portfolio of high quality collodion images, full frame and stereoscopic, as the ship edged forwards at an agonisingly slow pace. One of his initial images showed the bow in perfect symmetry as the last supports were removed from her enormous double hull. This is a remarkable photograph as owing to the location Howlett needed to obtain an image at such height. The Great Eastern was 58 feet from deck to keel according to the Illustrated Times, making this viewing platform vantage point approximately 30 feet from ground level. The following day the ship was given a last minute change of name and was christened “Leviathan”, ignoring the old sailor’s superstition of a change of name bringing bad luck throughout the life of the renamed ship. From that day this huge vessel became a true Leviathan, a giant untameable sea monster, and took three months of herculean force to finally reach the end of the 200ft slipway into Thames on the high tide of 31st January 1858. One year after these photographs were taken Robert Howlett died of fever at the age of 27 and left a shocked photographic community behind. Brunel died the following year but their brief working relationship produced a permanent legacy of images of a unique ship, unrivalled in size until the turn of the century and a portrait of its creator framed by the Leviathan’s colossal launching chains. Brunel wanted the Great Eastern to be his engineering legacy but Howlett’s photographs proved to have greater longevity than 12,000 tons of iron.

CAPITAL INTEREST EXPERIENCE

Shooting a nude Shooting a model, says Barry Hoffman LRPS, can be a daunting experience. But shooting a nude can seem terrifying and at the same time somewhat voyeuristic. After shooting portraits for many years, this year he decided to try and master the fine art nude. Here’s how he went about it. 15


1. Have a concept, a vision, and idea or a point of view There is little point in just turning up to a studio with a model and pointing your camera at them and hoping for the best. I started my adventure with a very clear goal in mind. I didn’t want to shoot glamour, or anything overtly “sexy”. I wanted, as with all my photography, to evoke a feeling, an emotion or a reaction from my viewer. I had in my mind that I wanted to shoot very low key. I wanted to give a sensual feeling to my shots and tease the viewer. So I looked at some magazines and websites and very quickly I ruled out the “playboy” poses and decided that I wanted to concentrate on lines, curves and light. 2. Let someone else do the hard work of organising I am a frequent user of www.meetup.com - for those people who don’t know where to start with finding a model, make up artist or studios - it is a great way of letting someone else do the hard work and you just pay and turn up. In my case I regularly attend meet ups organised by one or two professional photographers and I have a good relationship with them, so I can suggest a concept and they might slot it into their programme. One such shoot was low-key nudes which we expanded to use water spray (with a bit of glycerine to stop the water streaking). 3. Communicate with your model When I turn up to the shoot, the first thing I do after introducing myself, is to explain to the shoot coordinator what I am trying to do. I might have been on eBay to find some cheap props or I might have brought some images along to show what I am trying to do - that way I can set the lights up myself or get someone to do it so I can create the effect I want. Then I communicate with the model. The main thing to remember here is that models aren’t psychic. You have to explain what you are trying to do - ask them if they have any ideas, chat and don’t be afraid to show them the back of the camera to show them how it is going.

NOT BEDLAM AT ALL In June, Dave went to West Wickham to photograph the Bethlem Museum of the Mind which has been shortlisted for the Art Fund Museum of the Year award. What did he think? “When a man is tired of photographing London, he is tired of Life.” You’ve heard something similar before. Attributed to Sam Johnson, from 1777. How true, how true. The Arts Fund held a competition recently, to select the Museum of the Year from a shortlist of five. And a competition within a competition, to select the best photograph of one of these museums. Which were:

• Arnofini, Bristol • Bethlem Museum of the Mind, West Wickham (where??)

• Jupiter Artland, West Lothian • Victoria and Albert Museum, South Kensington

• York Art Gallery, York (I know!!) This being a magazine of London interest, and me being a photographer who likes a challenge, Bethlem seemed an obvious choice. My wife, my mother-in-law and I went on a weekday. Ambience: Quiet Weather: Good.

22


Here’s a bit of background from the

Museum website, to put you in the picture...“The Bethlem Museum of the Mind records the lives and experience and celebrates the achievements of people with mental health problems. Our aim is to make our collections more accessible, and to provide accurate information to help in their interpretation.” The word ‘bedlam’ derives from the original Bethlem asylum. But the current hospital and museum are anything but bedlam. A haven of tranquillity in the chaotic world around us. It’s not a big museum. It sits in a lovely 1930s art deco building in the equally lovely, manicured grounds of Bethlem hospital. This is a working hospital for the care of people with mental health problems. The art gallery is on the ground floor. Lots of the artwork have been created by artists with mental health issues who have an association with Bethlem, and the new gallery gives them a professional outlet for their work. The museum is on the first floor, and covers the history of mental illness and psychiatry from its earliest times. Both the museum and the gallery are challenging. At the same time, enervating and uplifting. They confront you with the idea that the difference between mental good and ill-health is wafer thin. I strongly recommend a visit.
