Vicki Goldberg quotes
-
“When photography was invented, it was thought to be an equivalent to truth. It was truth with a capital T.”
-- Vicki Goldberg -
“When photography was invented, people had to make room in their minds for the idea that the dead would always be visible.”
-- Vicki Goldberg -
“Two men with a camera, thoughtfully observing the visual cacophony of one major thoroughfare and the complicated interplay of its history, its present, and the certainty of change, have laid the groundwork for a dialogue and a vision that reaches farther than human eyes can see.”
-- Vicki Goldberg -
“Often what is nearest is hardest of all to see - try asking a fish to define water. Distance opens a door to revelation. When the first great distances of space were conquered by technology, a camera altered the human perspective on the Earth as radically as Galileo did when he proved the sun was the center of the universe. The ecology movement was born from a photographically altered consciousness.”
