Tracey Moffatt – First Jobs Series, 2008 Over the years my friends and I joke about our dreadful past jobs. When I was a kid I always had jobs and I always made my own money whether it was receiving a dollar for pulling up the weeds in the yard or baby sitting for neighbours or working at the local green grocers. Tracey Moffatt, New York 2008
ANDRE KERTESZ Perhaps more than any other photographer, Andre Kertesz discovered and demonstrated the special aesthetic of the small camera. These beautiful little machines seemed at first hardly serious enough for the typical professional, with his straightforward and factual approach to the subject. Most of those who did use small cameras tried to make them do what the big camera did better; deliberate, analytical description. Kertesz had never been much interested in deliberate, analytical description; since he had begun photographing in 1912 he had sought the revolution of the elliptical view, the unexpected detail, the ephemeral moment ___ not the epic but the lyric truth. Like his fellow Hungarian Moholy-Nagy, he loved the play between pattern and deep space; the picture plane of his photographs is like a visual trampoline, taut and resilient. from "Looking at Photographs " by John Szarkowski - Andre Kertesz photo library - Andre Kertesz / recommended books Andre Kertesz: His Life and Work

Muybridge's first photographic project took place in Yosemite, California in spring 1867; using a mobile photographic unit - 'The Flying Studio' and the pseudonym 'Helios'. Finding the right light and view was the challenging beginning to an equally demanding process of outdoor collodion wet-plate photography. After six months, Muybridge's first trip to Yosemite was complete. Muybridge went on to make landscape photography within California a fundament of his early career. Landscape painting and photography was popular in California at this time, reflecting a wider trend throughout the Western World. In California particularly, the gold rush of 1849 impacted hugely on the environment of the state. Select Bibliography
