Lartigue 拉蒂格

Lartigue 拉蒂格 摄影史上再也找不到第二个人像法国摄影家迥克——昂利·拉帝格(Jacques—Henri Lartigue)一样:那么早就开始拍照(七岁就拍下了不朽名作);而那么晚才举行第一次个展(七十岁于纽约现代美术馆)的特殊例子了。 出生于一八九四年六月十三日的拉帝格,如今已年迈九十一。虽然在他成名的二十多年前,也就是他四十岁之后就很少拍照了,但其名气却一天比一天大;连当今摄影巨孽昂利·卡蒂——布列松(Henricartier—Bresson,1908一)也对他特别推崇(一向吝于夸奖别人的布列松只提过自己心仪的两位摄影家,另一位是尤金·阿杰特Eugene Atget,1957—1927,也是法籍)。 目前处于半退休状况的拉帝格,—直和自己深爱不渝的视觉世界保持热烈的交往关系,并经常在摄影界里提携新进。他在自己生命中热情的摄影岁月里(1900—1930左右),所留下来的作品,至今仍温暖着每一位观赏者的心灵;因为他从来就没拍过生命里不幸的一面,他自始至终都是个温情世界的歌颂者。


Jacques Lartigue was born in Courbevoie on June 13, 1894. He took his first photographs at the age of six, using his father’s camera, and started keeping what would become a lifelong diary. In 1904 he began making photographs and drawings of family games and childhood experiences, also capturing the beginnings of aviation and cars and the smart women of the Bois de Boulogne as well as society and sporting events. An unfailingly curious amateur, he tried out all the available techniques, tirelessly recording the fleeting moments and meticulously arranging his several thousand images in large albums.
However, it would seem that photography was not his true vocation. In 1915 he attended the Académie Jullian: painting was to remain his professional activity and from 1922 onwards he exhibited in the salons of Paris and southern France.

His acquaintances in the world of the arts included Sacha Guitry and Yvonne Printemps, Kees van Dongen, Pablo Picasso and Jean Cocteau, while his passion for movies saw him work as still photographer with Jacques Feyder, Abel Gance, Robert Bresson, François Truffaut and Federico Fellini.

Although Lartigue occasionally sold his pictures to the press and exhibited at the Galerie d’Orsay alongside Brassaï, Man Ray and Doisneau, his reputation as a photographer was not truly established until he was 69, with a retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the publication of a portfolio in Life. He now added his father’s first name to his own surname, becoming Jacques Henri Lartigue. Worldwide fame came three years later with his first book, The Family Album, followed in 1970, by Diary of a Century, conceived by Richard Avedon. In 1975 he had his first French retrospective at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. For the rest of his life, Lartigue was busy answering commissions from fashion and decoration magazines.

He also produced the official photograph of the new French president, Valéry Giscard d’Estaing.

He died in Nice on September 12, 1986.
