COLORS #52

[@mikoajstarzynski3738]

I beg You, Alec, don't stop making these videos!!!

[@guillaumemasl1918]

I love this n°52 Colors mag, the editing is so well built !

[@deanpeterson_]

These are my favorite videos on KZbin.

[@hernancca]

Great video Alex! Thank you

[@utopiamondocane]

I was around 10 yo when my dad begins to buy Colors. Reading those magazines when I was a kid definitely had a huge impact on my life and shaped the person I become. I've learned there how to embrace and love the diversity of life, been curious more than judgemental, and of course the beauty and power of pictures. Thanks Colors!

Alec, this is the best photography content on youtube. Hope to see more of them but can't wait to see your next work!

[@lornroll]

Hello Alec, I really enjoy your videos, I feel connected with this one in particular by the fact that some years ago in the same week, one day I saw one of your exhibition, and another one I had the opportunity to see Toscani for a lecture, and he started with that sentence you read. I still feel inspired with your large printed pictures and Toscani's lecture. Keep up if you can with these great videos!

[@garwim2k]

These are frustrating times, but FWIW I'm selfishly grateful for these, even though they are a byproduct of you not being out there creating new work 🙏

[@JaneAlynnPhotography]

Thanks for your honesty. I can relate to living with fear. While its presence is partly based in the horror of our circumstances, I try to remember it's also been imposed as a political strategy. And this I want to resist. Doing our work is one way to resist. Thanks for these videos, and I look forward to new work from you.

[@glennsines956]

I had to order Colors 52 and have to say that it is one of the best things that I have read in quite a while. Thanks Alec!!

[@dimitrisadamopoulos]

Thank you so much Mr Soth! Hope to see you again on the road doing what you love. You are such a great inspiration for all of us. 🙌

[@dbugatto]

What a wonderful diversion to immerse myself in during this afternoon's coffee break in the studio .

[@Stefd83]

Thanks again Alec for this great video! Do your best to not abandon us and work on your new projects at the same time 😉

[@juliend4260]

Thanks for introducing me to Colors magazine. Very interesting issue!!

[@juliend4260]

Found this issue on their website! Ordered it directly :)

[@akira6326]

those rambling videos helped me getting a better understanding about photography! thank you!

[@chandanborgohain1848]

Lots of love and thanks for these videos. Hope you keep making them.

[@33India6]

This is just totally awesome and wonderful. The most pleasant part of the week, listening and absorbing! Thank you Alec!

[@MichaelCroghan]

Joyful inspiring knowledgeable ramblings always delightful, thank you always for your time and sharing

[@johngskewes]

Thank you Alec - these videos are so good - I really appreciate what it is you are doing here.

[@pauperrimo4]

Excelente Alec! No dejes nunca de hacer estos videos! Por favorrrr

[@tricityterror]

Would love to hear how you deal with that fear, can't wait to see new work. Spring is here.

[@unoclam]

These videos are so great!!

Hello Alec. All the things in this video brought my thoughts back to the Broken Manual. From the history of Rolando, the kind of photos, from Alec staying in his library (the place where you can "travel"), to making change decisions. We look forward to news about the new project. I also hope to see new videos with thoughts on what interests you.

[@romkehoogwaerts]

I loved Colors mag growing up. It was an enormous inspiration to me and I wish it was still around in some form. I gotta get that compendium!

[@rogerhyland8283]

Fear can be transformative once you recognise it and overcome it. You’d think our fear/s would be obvious to us but even more frighteningly, they can remain submerged in an outwardly comfortable life.

[@stitchpo]

Dear Alec: Love you! A book I've been enjoying that perfectly combines text and photos is William Christenberry: Working from Memory (Steidl, 2008). Brief, eminently readable stories by Christenberry accompany his genius photos.

[@sofiamorais9494]

Videos vs new work... Really don't know which one I would miss the most

[@arnoldmmanda]

luv the videos! 😍👂🏿

[@sebastianmejiaphoto]

most inspiring video!

[@krishnapriyaka3261]

there used to be an ipad app containing all the published colors magazines, but now it’s gone 🙁

[@jmsm7560]

Great video, amazing hat.

[@danielemilazzo432]

I think Oliviero Toscani, started Fabrica a concept school for photography, design and other arts.

[@deepanshukumawat2634]

You are freakin' awesome! Keep it up.

[@shannonghannam1531]

Love this!

[@NKart]

many people in italy do not like Oliviero Toscani for his radical and provocative ideas. if you can understand italian there are many interviews and conferences on youtube very inspirational too . I personally prefer his speech rather than his photographic work

[@xinquanchen8074]

Thanks for sharing those fascinating books with us. Colors #52 is quite an inspiring one and we can see the impact of it on your book. However, I'm wondering how we may distinguish between overinterpretation and underinterpretation. I agree that if the text simply describes the visual image then it's totally unnecessary, but will there be a case that the author/photographer pretend to be excited and then make up a story for the photo? Many thanks. P.S.: Have you considered been sponsored by a bookstore / publisher? I think your videos promote many photo books. Many of my friends watch your video and buy more photobooks. P.P.S.: On the Colors Magazine, any recommendations on other issues? A single issue #52 is relatively expensive for shipping lol

[@adventureStaley]

AWESOME

[@SergioPontillo]

thanks alec

[@henrybeckmeyer8393]

Man, Toscani is one interesting dude.

[@victorgamarra64]

Alec you inspired me to start as a photographer. I want to really do great things and make a photobook in the future. I am starting working hard but i am 40 years old, do you think that i am late if i want to be in someway recognized? Sorry my english is not good, greetings from Perú!

[@AlecSothYouTube]

Never too late

[@garrytrinh3062]

Hey Alec, look up Tibor Kaliman. Colors was his idea.

[@ChrisRoutledge]

I love the hat. Sounds like ...

[@aznoy]

The photographic eye guy sent me. 😆
