[Gandhi] gira todos los días durante 1 hora, comenzando generalmente a las 4. Todos los miembros de su ashram deben girar. Él y sus seguidores animan a todos a girar. Incluso M. B-W se animó a poner [aparte] de su cámara para girar. . . . Cuando comenté que tanto la fotografía como el spinning eran artesanías, me dijeron en serio, “El mayor de los 2 está girando.” Spinning se eleva a las alturas casi de una religión con Gandhi y sus seguidores. La rueda giratoria es una especie de Ikon para ellos. El spinning es una cura para todos, y se habla en términos de la poesía más alta.

80 years ago today, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was assassinated. This iconic photo of Gandhi at his spinning wheel was shot by the legendary Margaret Bourke-White in 1946. In typed notes that accompanied Bourke-White’s film when it was sent from India to LIFE’s New York offices in the spring of 1946, the significance of the simple spinning wheel in the photo is made abundantly clear: ____
“[Gandhi] spins every day for 1 hr. beginning usually at 4. All members of his ashram must spin. He and his followers encourage everyone to spin. Even M. B-W was encouraged to lay [aside] her camera to spin… . When I remarked that both photography and spinning were handicrafts, they told me seriously, "The greater of the 2 is spinning.” Spinning is raised to the heights almost of a religion with Gandhi and his followers. The spinning wheel is sort of an Ikon to them. Spinning is a cure all, and is spoken of in terms of the highest poetry.“ (Margaret Bourke-White—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #LIFElegends #Gandhi #MargaretBourkeWhite

Reposted from @midnight.special "When you're on the street, and, as you're walking along, a woman turns the corner going away from you, and for an instant you have a glimpse of the side of her face, of the gesture of her shoulder, the shape of her body, and you are committed... You are in love for an instant, or your senses are rocked for an instant. That person then disappears and is lost to you forever." – Joel Meyerowitz.

"...Ma non credo esista una vita migliore delle altre, esistono solo vite diverse. Sono sempre stata contenta della scelta che ho fatto. Una donna che vive una vita vagabonda deve essere capace di affrontare la solitudine, deve avere una stabilità emotiva, una cosa molto più importante della stabilità economica. Se sai di poter contare su di te, la vita può essere molto ricca, anche se questo richiede una grande disciplina" (⁣Margaret Bourke-White) È arrivata a Roma la mostra dedicata alla pioniera dell'informazione e dell'immagine che ha lavorato per la famosa rivista LIFE. Dalle cime dei grattacieli, alla guerra più brutale, non c'è nulla che non abbia fotografato con coraggio. Consigliatissima. "Prima, donna. Margaret Bourke-White" fino al 27 febbraio nel Museo di Roma in Trastevere. #BourkeWhiteRoma #margaretbourkewhite #bourkewhite #museiincomune #museiincomuneroma #museodiromaintrastevere #MuseoRomaTrastevere #trastevere #roma #contrastobooks #blackandwhite #retrospettiva #mostra #fotografia #exhibition #photography #streetphotography #dafarearoma #igersroma #yallersroma #volgoroma @museiincomuneroma @fondazioneformaperlafotografia @zetemaprogettocultura @sovrintendenzacapitolina (presso Museo di Roma in Trastevere) https://www.instagram.com/p/CY9fEyhoFJS/?utm_medium=tumblr

The iconic New Woman—modern, independent, stylish, creative, and confident—was a revolutionary model for women across the globe. Featuring more than 120 international photographers, The New Woman Behind the Camera explores the diverse “new women” who embraced photography as a mode of professional and personal expression from the 1920s to the 1950s. This groundbreaking exhibition reveals the significant impact women have had on the history of modern photography.

This photo appeared in the first issue of LIFE magazine, November 23, 1936 with the following caption: "The new west's new hotspot is a town called "New Deal" - shot by the great Margaret Bourke-White. The introduction to the first issue began: "If any Charter Subscriber is surprised by what turned out to be the first story in the first issue of LIFE, he is not nearly as surprised as the Editors were. Photographer Margaret Bourke-White had been dispatched to the Northwest to photograph the multi-million dollar projects of the Columbia River Basin. What the Editors expected—for use in some later issue—were construction pictures as only Bourke-White can take them. What the Editors got was a human document of American frontier life which, to them at least, was a revelation."
