Favourite Photographer - John Gutmann

My favourite photographer is John Gutmann. John Gutmann was involved in photography for 60 years. Within his 60 years of photography, John Gutmann took over a thousand professional photos. Gutmann worked mainly with black-and-white photography. All of his photos are unique and reflect his own personal style.


Memory, 1939

Elevator Garage, 1936



Omen, 1934

John Gutmann is my favourite photographer because all of his pictures are simple, yet showcase his extraordinary talent. Gutmann takes a simple idea and makes it look amazing within his photos. Gutmann is consistent within his photographs, in the sense that they are mainly all done in black-and-white. I think that this consistency makes Gutmann identifiable as an artist.
