“I am in agreement with John Szarkowski. A photograph is both a window and a mirror. We look through the window and see, connect and collaborate with the subject matter in front of us. We also use this same external reality as a mirror which reflects our individual proclivities, genetics, experiences, thoughts and desires.”

Michael Kenna is a great and much beloved photographer. The French government recognized this early, and now his entire photographic body of work is in agreement to be donated to the French State! Our friends at Eye of Photography were lucky enough to chat with Michael recently. We are sharing their interview below, a great chance to get to know our good friend and a talented artist.
