Peter will forever be one of the kindest and purest human beings I have ever known let alone worked for. He is a beautiful soul. Peter graced everyone with his purity and genuine appreciation for everyone that had the pleasure of knowing him. My heart is with his family.
I've seen this a week after he passed away ! - It's so touching to ear him speaking about his work and career. Obviously, he wasn't ready to end his career and had so much more to bring to this 'industry' . Thank you for this awesome interview , Lou. I guess it's not easy to question such a legend and this is , by far, the most pertinent interview I saw from him so far .
I do think he is a big inspiration for many young photographers. I personally see his work with an eye of a men that can't get enough of young women do what he wants them to do. His portrait photos look all the same, their faces tell all the same story. He did not grow in his entire working life. He still does the same work he did 20 years ago.
@@fuzzy927 I think that photography isn't about reality but about revelation where he succeeded, Regarding young women you're mistaken he did may older women and men.
@@fuzzy927 i would spend time to check out his book Shadows on the Wall. Many portraits of older actresses and I do believe his work has grown and matured over the decades. He's a big inspiration of my work. He made his images about the people in front of the camera which should be the goal.
This is a great interview. You always get people comfortable and open. If you do a part two, I would be interested to get deeper into his lighting techniques and more of his narrative work. Well done, regardless.
Gone but never forgotten. Loved this man's famous photography. I enjoy fashion photos but only certain styles. His had serious quality. The huge gallery of supermodels and celebs is 😍😍😍👍.
Hearing this interview again... His poetic and soulful photography is even more relevant now, with all this soulless advances of artificial "intelligence". People are really becoming automatons. The last Vogue cover with the 90s supermodels was a disgrace, airbrushed and looking like cartoon characters. Anna Wintour gave him his big break and had an eye, but now is just a sad commercial entity.
Such a Maestro...look into the eyes of those beauties who posed for him: they're naked whilst fully clothed. The way he captured the essence of women... wow
Can anybody please tell me the name of the artist that Peter mentioned when she asked him why he stop making art ... He said " suddenly the American come to europe", .... there 3 names of the artist that i couldn't hear out " Pls pls pls !!!
It sounds like he mentions 3 names: Huebler (probably Douglas Huebler), Kosuth (Joseph Kosuth), and possibly Weiner (Dan Weiner). All 3 were photographers around the time period he'd have been looking at. Hope this helps!
Peter has his point.... but what I don't understand is he's working in an image consious industry that his opinion doesn't fit in. Fashion is all that.
Unlike Peter Lindbergh, I very much have what i do for money and what i do for art. I dont have the luxury. Don't really have a choice. Well the choice is either go working some shitty manual labor job i hate, OR i sometimes shoot for money and sometimes shoot for art.
Does this interviewer have something against Peter? She keeps pushing him into a corner in various ways. "So the *girls* that you shoot with, you want them to be themselves, blah blah." He's shooting Nicole Kidman and Meryl Streep, sister. They are respectable women who have actually achieved something through their hard work. You seem to have a ticket for making commentary based on your condescending observations. And I don't know your name.
Utter BS! Peter put more decorations in his shoots for his narrative images than any other photographer! From horses, cars, planes, motorcycles, trunks, dogs, flowers, etc. etc. These interviews are idiotic!! R.I.P. Sir!

Anyone with a creative bone in their body needs to sit through these incredible series of interviews.

When you party, take drugs, drink, eat, don't sleep enough and don't exercise you become a ticking time bomb! Sad!
So glad to see this interview such an honest man R.I.P. you will be missed Peter.
Such a legend would love a video with him discussing his favorite long time models and favorite shoots
Probably the most important interview about photography if you want to understand the industry
