厄内斯特·J·贝洛克
Emest J.Bellodq


    早在20世纪初期,厄内斯特·J·贝洛克(1873—1949)带着他的8X10大画幅照相机,拍摄新奥尔良地区巴辛大街上得到法律许可的卖淫女性的画面。他的这一私人主题一直处于隐秘状态,直到他死后,才最终得到国际上的认可。实际上,这些妓女的肖像在他生前一直没有被印成照片。这一主题只有他很少的几个朋友知道,在他死后,他的这些玻璃底版的照片才在一家旧货店里被发现。1967年,著名的摄影大师李·弗里德兰德得到许可开始印制这些玻璃负片,1970年,现代艺术博物馆为此举办了一个主题展览。从此以后,贝洛克就成为拍摄妓女题材最负盛名的摄影家之一。在这个后人为他建立的主页上,可以看到一些他的代表作,以及很长篇幅的关于这些照片和他生前的逸事,因此这是了解这位摄影家的绝好去处。

In the early 1900s, Ernest J. Bellocq carried his 8 x 10-inch view camera across Basin Street to photograph the women of New Orleans' notorious district of legalized prostitution, Storyville. His private photographic project remained unknown until after his death, but eventually found its way to international acclaim. Yet virtually no prostitute portraits printed by Bellocq himself have surfaced. He kept his Storyville project secret from everyone except a few of his closest friends, and it remained secret until his glass negative plates were discovered languishing in a junk shop years after his death.
