Edgar Angelone Photography
Black and White Art Photography
Much of his career has been spent photographing themes that appear at that moment in his life. But he does not accept the idea that his work is pictorial, stressing that he is interested in photographs that focus on existence. Angelone draws from existential philosophers such as Sartre, Heidegger, Kierkegaard, and Tillich. His work often explores ideas of subjectivity and objectivity. He constantly moves from darkness to light then darkness again, a theme of his life experiences. Life moves in constant flux of distress and tranquility; like nature, it gives you the painful thorn and the beautiful rose at the same time, he writes. I like to make images with emphasis of light, yet always including component of darkness. I feel that it is in this awareness that the full tonality of life (and the image) can be experienced.
