- "For those who associate Art Wolfe solely with nature photography, be prepared for a startling revelation.
Drawing from 36 years of international travel, Art will delve into a vast range of subjects; from discovering the subject to elements of design and even new works. Imagery of nature, wildlife, and the world's varied landscapes will round out the curriculum to provide the most comprehensive and imaginative class available.
Utilizing his formal training as a teacher, Art dissects visual images, exploring what makes a compelling and emotionally engaging photograph. Attendees will come away with inspiration and tangible ideas for moving their photography forward.
About the Photographer: Art Wolfe is one of the most internationally acclaimed and highly published nature photographers of our time. Over the course of his 30-year career, Art Wolfe has worked on every continent and in hundreds of locations. His stunning images interpret and record the world's fast disappearing wildlife, landscapes and native cultures, and are a lasting inspiration to those who seek to preserve them all. Wolfe's photographs are recognized throughout the world for their mastery of color, composition and perspective.
In 1978 he published his first book, Indian Baskets of the Northwest Coast ,with the late Dr. Allan Lobb, a close friend and mentor, who also gave Wolfe a start by putting the young photographer's work into patients' rooms at Swedish Medical Center. Wolfe was soon photographing for the world's top magazines such as National Geographic, Smithsonian, Audubon, GEO, and Terre Sauvage. Wolfe has taken an estimated one million images in his lifetime and has released over sixty books. In May 2007 Art made his public television debut with the high definition series "Travels to the Edge with Art Wolfe." He currently spends nearly nine months a year traveling. Wolfe is an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society and serves on the advisory boards for the Wildlife Conservation Society, Nature's Best Foundation, Bridges to Understanding, and is a Fellow of the International League of Conservation Photographers.
Wolfe maintains his gallery, stock agency, production company, and digital photography school in Seattle's Pioneer Square district.
It is in the wild places, where the edge of the earth meets the corners of the sky, the human spirit is fed. -Art Wolfe"
great video. But one frustrating thing about most of the google videos is that the camera stays on the speaker almost the whole time, and just glances every once and a while at the photo being shown. Should be the opposite. I don't really need to see Art's face: I want to see the picture he is talking about!!! Arghh.
Panting are the views of the artist through their eyes. Which in my head were the cameras of the past. They taught us how to view the world in their eyes. They gave us many view to go on to take pictures . I love your passion on talking about the past artist that taught us now how to be passionate about taking pictures.
Great conversation and lecture by master artist, photographer and humanist Art Wolfe. This guy is a true inspiration for all. Thank you.
I am so glad I was able to hear this lecture from a stunning photographer such as Art Wolfe. I've gain a whole new perspective about photography and I will strive to incorporate art in all my photographs hereafter.
how wonderful...so happy to have viewed this presentation...thank you for sharing.
What an inspiration to all photographers this man is, 9 years of dedication for 1 book and the finishing results always bueatiful
Very frustrating. I don't have to see his face to listen to his words. This would be much better if the images were on the screen most of the time, and Art Wolfe only occasionally.
Very inspiring. The immense dedication to his work is an example to us all.
I applaud your diversity and growth as a artist in your career. It's simply not the locate but your site and the ability to use thee
love his work, what an inspiration for other photogs!!!! Thank you Art
Wow! I guess he is an artist who would like to sit down and have a talk with you like your neighbor. A master with a golden heart.
for me it was a very inspiring talk show on photography.. many things to learn that i hope I'll start implimenting all your suggestions.. great work Art Wolfe
I enjoyed this video! And when the Pollock painting came up I went like... Oh, my God! A photo based on this! Very joyful for understanding ~96% of what he said. I wonder if people like him enjoy world at a higher level than we do (as they see things we don't, I mean)...
Art, you are brilliant, some of the best photography I've ever seen.
Very interesting perspectives-Thanks, Art Wolfe!
Truly inspiring video - well worth watching. Thank you.
I had to learn and replicate his style for a photography project. I ended up learning a lot more than I expected 🥰
Absolutely Amazing!!!
Very inspiring talk and great insights into how he approaches his work.
Incredible. Can't say the same about his wig. So self involved.
Breathtaking work.
Wonderful pictures.
Excellent job, you got to love Art.
Interesting.. Would like to learn more. Thanks for the post.
Great information and excellent photography.
Excellent photographer. Very inspiring.
Thanks for your help,it was very important for my job.
That was excellent. Thank you.
I agree with Andy Charnas..Would have liked more time on the actual photorgaphs in the lecture..also..What does Art Wolfe do in his career or life to help preserve the wildlife he so loves photographing? Does he have a foundation that "Gives Back" to these endangered species in regards to their vanishing habitat? How about a donation of a photo for a donation given to habitate preservation & protection of wildlife..Could you do that Mr. Wolfe?
Thanks, Great video
Very inspiring!
Pretty Amazing!!!
Nice work!

I agree with Andy Charnas..Would have liked more time on the actual photorgaphs in the lecture

deeply arrogant brilliant artist
Wonderful insights and obviously great photography on a different level , from a consummate artist and professionalMore focus on the photographs rather than the presenter would make it even more enjoyable
A TRUE VAN GOGH, VIEW

about those blurred shots at the beginning, you kinda have to shoot without knowing full well what's gonna come out, it's almost like shooting blindly, no?
Please redress the comments on Monet, and Impressionism generally. It has been proven over and again, I did a thesis on the subject, Monet's paintings were often completed in the studio. Complex layering of warm and cool colours were used to weave a palette which activated the surface in a very thoughtful approach. Rouen cathedral paintings are a perfect example. "Imprecise" couldn't possibly be further from the truth.
His name MUST be a pseudonym: he stalks and devours art. If that is his true name at birth, the coincidence is beyond staggering.
it's probably short for Arthur, or Archibald.
About Cuba, you should be more down to earth. Cuban people are the best, do not make fun or take advantage for you to make a profit with your photos of walls a homes.
Art wolf is a great photographer no dispute about that, but you hardly learn anything about his techniques, he mostly talks about himself and how he started, which is OK also like most mentioned in the comments the camera stays on his face why not on the work, i just don't see a great value from his classes 😉
Over the Top Self Promotion!
Not only do we have the camera practically all the time on the speaker and not the pictures, but when we eventually see the Seurats and Monets they ll all stamped copyrighted by Art Wolfe, to me thats misleading and over the top self promotion which put me off watching the rest of the video.
I love the first 10 mintures... Then it was a boring photography and composition. Boring means excellent photos but that we see everyday in books and travel magazines. A bit disappointed!
I was amazed that you did not want to go into any of your know how on the technical part of photography. Sure you gave everything about your artistic aspirations and achievements but when it came to share some know-how how you do it, the curtain was pulled and you claimed only to grasp 4% of what you do inside a camera!!!!???. Why? After 35 or 40+ years of photography and carrying your camera daily for hours you are you not able or willing to explain and share what other photographer also want to learn, about some shooting tips, lenses, your settings, apertures and shutter speeds, postproduction, printing, papers, raw files, etc, Anyway...keep it up and thanks for sharing your experiences. MK
To be fair, the talk was titled "the art of the image" not "the technology of the image.
I have one of his books and it goes into detail regarding that type of stuff.
come on, who needs it? things he tells in this video is much more important than tech details. this is what photography is.
Respectfully, his point is that an image is borne of art, not what is buried down in a camera's menu.
Boy this guy loves to hear himself talk...
