A photograph that I like: ''Landscape as an attitude''



''Landscape as an attitude'' is a photograph was taken in 1979 at the United States by Luis Camnitzer, a Uruguayan artist born in Germany. This photograph is a self-portrait of the artist and shows his face like a topography in which appears  different elements of a rural landscape.
I like this photograph because it seems to me very interesting the way that the human body presents as a surface that  holds something, in this case, the animals, the tree and the house. The forms, folds and textures of Luis's face remind me a mountain. This photograph generates in me the idea that all  the persons could be thought like different landscapes, and it  seems to me so beautiful.
Many times, more than find a logical meaning  to an artwork, I only prefer feel that it produces to me. In ''landscape as an attitude'', I like the simplicity and calm of the scene,  I feel in peace.

I found this photograph in  Artishock, a web page about the contemporary art, specially  visual arts. If you can visit this page, this is the link: artishockrevista.com. Enjoy it!
