BIOGRAPHY | HUGH TURVEY - SOME BACKGROUND AND HISTORY
Inspiration:
-
Hugh's early influence came from Russian
Constructivist concepts (most notably the work of Alexander Rodchenko: "the lens of his camera discovered objects of unusual architecture,
rhythm, and plasticity") and more recently the extensive and
innovative high speed and stroboscopic photographic studies by Dr
Harold E Edgerton which explore the "ingenuity behind the creativity"
and "seeing the unseen".... Not forgetting George (my semiology
lecturer for his wisdom and visual prowess), Gered Mankowitz and artist Elisabeth Arbuckle for
my first camera.
