Olivo Barbieri

Here are some links to works by and articles about Olivo Barbieri, the photographer/filmmaker that we talked a little bit about in class today -- we watched an excerpt from his site specific series from Las Vegas.

He uses a tilt-shift lens to obtain such selective focus.

One from Metropolis Mag, with photos and info on his site specific series.

Another link. You can also just Google his name and then look under images. I believe he recently finished a site specific project on New York.

Also, here is a link to a photo essay by the photographer Vincent Laforet for the New York Times, that uses a similar technique. The photos are aerial shots of major sporting events taken with a tilt-shift lens.
