【#MPlusStories #MPlus故事】何藩：決定性的瞬間 Ho Fan: On the Decisive Moment (for English please scroll down) http://bit.ly/HoFan_video_Chi
「黑白是給我一個距離，是跟現實人生有一個距離， 我覺得這個距離很重要的。」何藩
‘Photographing in black and white offers me a sense of distance: a distance from real life. I think this kind of distance is important.’ Ho Fan
屢獲殊榮的攝影大師、電影導演及演員何藩，憑藉其對光影與構圖的獨有觸感，拍下無數反映香港五、六十年代的日常生活照，而苦力、小販、在街上玩耍的孩童等尋常百姓，更是他經常捕捉的對象。M+ 收藏了不少何藩代表性的作品，包括《迷離階梯》（1959）、《放學》（1963）、《街市隊伍》（1963）等。
何藩的攝影手法體現了法國攝影大師亨利．卡地亞－布列松（Henri Cartier-Bresson）稱之為「決定性瞬間」的精神。這種等待關鍵一刻才按下快門的攝影手法，直到今時今日仍然廣受街頭攝影師和攝影記者所採用。透過這訪問片段，大家可以欣賞更多何藩的精彩作品，以及了解他對攝影的獨特看法：http://bit.ly/HoFan_video_Chi

Award-winning photographer, film-maker, and actor Ho Fan applied his keen sense of composition and lighting to capture some of the most distinctive images of daily life in 1950s and 1960s Hong Kong. He often made the lives of ordinary people such as labourers and hawkers, and children playing in the street, the subjects of his work. A number of his photographs are part of the M+ Collections, including ‘Smokey Staircase’ (1959), ‘School is Over’ (1963), and ‘The Market Parade’ (1963).
Ho Fan’s style of photography exemplifies what the French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson dubbed the ‘decisive moment’. This practice —of waiting for the perfect moment to click the shutter button—remains a popular way of working that is widely used by street photographers and photojournalists alike.
