1963年,Robert Adams买了一台35毫米照相机,开始主要拍摄自然和建筑。他在Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center阅读了全套相机工作和光圈。他向专业摄影师Myron Wood学习摄影技术。1964年开始摄影,1966年为了有更多的时间拍照,他做了一名业余教师。1969年,他去纽约旅行时遇到了现代艺术博物馆(Museum of Modern Art)的摄影策展人约翰·沙考斯基(John Szarkowski),博物馆后来买了他的四幅作品。1970年,他开始了全职摄影师的工作。
In 1963, Robert Adams bought a 35mm camera and started shooting at nature and architecture. He read the full Camera Work and Aperture at Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center. He learned photographic skills with the professional photographer Myron Wood. He began photographing in 1964,by 1966 he had more time to shoot so he became an amateur teacher. In 1969,he met the photography curator John Szarkowski of the Museum of Modern Art when he was touring New York,the museum later bought four of his works. In 1970,Adams began working as a full-time photographer.
美学是哲学的一个分支,研究美的本质和关于美的判断。我们不能一概而论谈论美,除非细节、具体的证据、事物中出现在我们眼前。Robert Adams 认为摄影师不是对无可争辩的事实进行分类,而是在直觉和希望上保持一致。
Aesthetic is a branch of philosophy that studies the nature of beauty and judgments. We cannot generalize beauty unless there are specifics,detailed evidence,or events in front of us. Robert Adams believes that photographers do not categorize indisputable facts but to correspond intuition and hope.
Alfred Stieglitz,Evening,New York from the Shelton ,1931
在Robert Adams眼里美这个词在现实中不可避免,但已经过时,用美这个词令他尴尬,而品质美似乎才是合适的词。如果艺术把美确定为正确的目标,他关注的美就是形式上的,是生命的连贯性和结构的同义词。因为生活可能是混乱的,形式美帮助我们应对最可怕的恐惧。
&34; this word is unavoidable in reality,but it is outdated,using the word &34; embarrasses him,&34; seems to be a better word. If beauty is the goal of arts,then the beauty is on forms,it is a synonym of continuity and structure. If life is chaotic,form beauty helps us face the most dreadful fear.
这个话题我觉得自己已经讲过很多次了,所以这次就推给罗伯特·亚当斯(Robert Adams)吧,他是一位来自美国的薄伽梵(中译者注:指拉玛那·马哈希)的信徒,在1947-1950年期间曾住在拉玛那道场。对于那些对他知之甚少或一无所知的人来说,我首。
Art is as abstract as philosophy,and it is more simplified. Art never equals life. In visual arts,this careful arrangement is called composition,most artists put it first place. However,art is free first,then it can reveal shapes.
艺术的抽象与哲学的抽象不同,它是由细节和可信的实在例子构成的。按照亚里士多德的说法,这些细节的优势就是人可以用自己的经验来证实,而摄影比任何其他艺术都更依赖于对细节的使用。摄影师可以描绘更好的世界,只是因为他能更好地看到眼前的世界。
Abstraction of art and that of philosophy is different,it is formed by details and trustable examples. According to Aristotle,the advantage of specifics is that people can test it with their own experience,and photography relies on the use of details more than any other kind of art. Photographers can depict a better world only because they can better see the world.
Charles Sheeler,Criss-Crossed Conveyors,River Rouge Plant,Ford Motor Company,” 1927
如果艺术的目标是美,怎样来评判艺术?Robert Adams认为,艺术是否揭示了我们自己经历过但没有被我们足够重视的重要形式。成功的艺术能让我们重新发现美。
If the goal of art is beauty,then how do we judge art? Robert Adams thinks: did the art reveal important forms that we had experienced but did not pay attention to. Successful art rediscovers beauty.

The judgment standard for art is the degree that it brings new intimation of form. A beautiful photo does not have to be shocking but it must in some aspect be different from the precedented(this is why artists cannot ignore the tradition of the medium).
Henri Cartier-Bresson Children Playing in Ruins,Seville,Spain
艺术品的美也可以从它的范围来判断;最伟大的美往往包含最多的元素; 最重要的艺术品往往具有最广泛的多样性。Charles Sheeler 的矿车在Ford Rouge(福特胭脂工厂)的照片是美的,但和Henri Cartier-Bresson的一些更为复杂的真人照片的相比,就算不上了。当然,这条规则有很好的例外,灯笼椒似乎将与任何主题一样有限,但Weston 把它们拍得是多么无限。
The beauty of artworks can also be evaluated by their scale; the greatest beauty often contains the most elements; the most important artworks often have the most varied diversity. Charles Sheeler&39;s more complicated photo of people,it is less. Bell peppers seem to be as limited as any other themes,but Weston shot them so unlimitedly.
Edward Weston Pepper
Robert Adams认为艺术作品的成功,不仅是它的新鲜度,调和元素的多样性,还有展示出来的轻松感。没有艺术品是很容易被制作出来的,但这种困难不能出现在艺术品中。Mu Ch’I’s 著名的墨水画六个柿子可能几秒钟就完成了,看起来毫不费力,但一定是经过无数次的练习才做到的。摄影也是如此。
Mu-Qi Six-Persimmons
当然,在对的时间、对的地点,有好的运气也能轻松拍出一些好的照片。如在战争中的照片、或类似Ansel Adams 拍摄的老教堂旁边的照片。然而,有些大量发行的杂志图片采用奇怪的角度、极端的镜头、古怪的暗房技术,揭示了一场用震撼和技术取代视觉的斗争,让人看得很累。优秀的摄影师有多少在依赖长焦镜头?相反,他们的创作通常以经济手段为标志,这与他们的主题是一种明显的日常关系。
Of course,at the right time,right place,and look luck,good photos can be made easily. For example,war photos,or Ansel Adams&39;s eyes. How many excellent photographers rely on long telephoto lenses. Instead,their creation is usually marked with economic means,which is an everyday relationship with their topics.
Ansel Adams Ruins of Old Church
Why do so many great photos seem so natural? Why do photographers choose to deceive that requires the most work? To reach the goal of art,deception is necessary: only photos that seem to be made easily can people believe that beauty is everywhere.
Robert Adams把“形式”等同于“美”——也就是说,艺术中的秩序反映了创造本身的秩序。被称之为艺术的一些东西,是与感性形式有关,完全脱离概念内容的形式,一种纯粹有序感觉的形式。其乐趣来自于颜色、形状和质地。
