“I believe there are more people taking pictures now than before, but the big change is access. However, if you go through the shoeboxes of anyone who has passed away and left a legacy of prints and slides to be mulled over by their survivors, you realize that there have always been millions of images out there. All shot by different people of all the same things. What separates great photography now as it did then, was a unique vision. That will always stand out.”
— - Ivor Evans
“I’m genuinely concerned about the number of young people that are pursuing degrees in photography, presumably thinking that the success criteria in this medium stems from joining the canon of photography as contemporary art, and then make a living out of that position. Such aspirations are founded upon a disingenuous idea – that photography is democratic, and therefore everyone has a fighting, almost entrepreneurial chance to be a leading light in this ‘democratic medium’ – when in fact both these aspirations and the art market are not democratic whatsoever, but are about being the one lifted from the many. So I am genuinely worried about what we are training students to do, or what they’re going to participate in, if such degrees continue to be dedicated to this notion of photography as contemporary art.”
