Bryan Adams Visual Gallery- Photokina Interview
Q: You started to photograph and document a long time ago and so your work at the studios and on your tours. Did your approach to the photography as a creative activity change since your beginning? Did the choice of your reasons change?
Adams: Yes, certainly. First I did some photos because I wanted to archive in any format. Because no one else didn´t care about this documentation, I took my cam – and honestly I wished I took some more photos. This kind of work has inspired me a lot because I´ve seen/ I see a lot 
of places I´ve never been before and I get to know a lot of fascinating people which otherwise I never had met. What can you want more?
Q: Which kind of cameras do you use? Is the equipment depending on basic conditions or on your mood/ideas?
Adams: Wherever I go I´d rather have the same equipment with me. Some cameras I have a long time like my Rolleiflex and my Polaroid cameras. Sometimes I grub out my old 10 x 8 Deardoff but most of the time I use a Mamya RZ and different 35 mm cameras like my Leica M6 and my Contax T2 on which I can count on too.
Q: Can you imagine yourself working with a digital camera?
Adams: Yes, I´ve worked with that a few times. That’s really completely different from a film in a camera. It works best when I collaborate with a good lab which catches on a lot from “colourmanagement” during picture editing.
Q: Do you work more conceptual or more spontaneous? (read more..)

Pizza-faced Canuck rocker Bryan Adams will give two concerts in Hungary in late November. The shows are part of a tour to mark the 25th anniversary of his career, and apparently have nothing to do with the 50th anniversary of the crushing of the Hungarian uprising, though frankly 25 years of Bryan Adams is not totally dissimilar to 25 years under the yolk of the Russkies.
