Photography Spotlight News!We are extremely excited to announce that this week’s interview will be exposing the creative sources and forces behind the works of the talented photographer Paul Matzner!
WPN: Please start with a little background information. Your bio states that you have a passion for music as well as photography. Why has photography become the dominant passion? |
WPN: You have quoted a writer once calling Henri Cartier-Bresson’s work “the poetry of human encounters on the street.” Besides this master, who or what else inspires you?
WPN: You are a participant in the “Featured Member” Exhibition currently on display at the Walker’s Point Center for the Arts in Milwaukee, Wisconsin USA. Congratulations on this achievement! Tell us about the images you have presented for this display. |
WPN: It has been written that your art “exudes humanism and approachability.” What is your reaction to this comment?
WPN: Please talk to us about your “Faces Project.” Is this an on-going piece of work or is there to be a “Faces Project, part 2?” During this mission you state that you asked individuals not to smile. That must have been difficult for the subjects, as some do look like they are slightly smiling. Would you say that is just part of the “human encounters on the street?” |
WPN: What’s next on your agenda, and what are your future goals?
