Photogram Photography Research

Adam Fuss.

Born in 1961 in the UK Adam started out by documenting the natural world through photography, this led on to Adams experimentation in his use of the camera this eventually meant Adam completely left the use of a camera and any normal photography process. Adam began to use cameraless methods such as photograms, and daguerreotypes.

Adam was well known for his huge life size photograms using water, in fuss's eyes the flash of a light on light sensitive paper to create a photogram creates a sense of transformation and perception. Due to Adams huge creativity and persistence in using camera less methods the news paper "The New Yorker" wrote an article on Adam stating "A restlessly inventive photographer, Fuss has made some of the most exiting, mysterious and provocative images of the past twenty years".

A "New York Times" writer said that Adams work reminded her of Van Goghs chinese spiritual work, it as also stated that this work created by Adam proves huge amounts of control behind the process.

Fuss began to create a line of pinhole images in 1984 and he began to exhibit in 1985, his work was exhibited at Massimo Audiello's gallery, he is still well known for how his image composition stands out. in 1982 many American collections contained Adams work including the metropolitan museum of art, Museum of Modern art in New York Whitney Museum of American Art Los Angeles County Museum And the Victoria and Albert Museum in London UK.
