Facente parte di quella corrente del Secondo Dopoguerra definita "fotografia umanistica", insieme ai fotografi Brassaï, Robert Doisneau, Cartier-Bresson, Izis ha sviluppato quella visione dello scatto che partendo da un dato realistico, filtrato attraverso la propria esperienza personale, rende l'immagine non solo una versione documentaristica della realtà, come accade nei reportage, ma un insieme di perfezione formale, contenuto, tempo, azione ed emozione. Nato in Lituania nel 1911, Izis si appassiona sin da giovane alla pittura. Attratto come molti suoi contemporanei dalla Parigi "capitale delle arti", si trasferisce in Francia nel 1930 dove, dopo un periodo difficile, viene assunto in un laboratorio fotografico. Nel 1941 l'occupazione tedesca costringe Bidermanas a rifugiarsi a Limoges. Nel 1944, con la liberazione di Limoges, Izis diventa fotografo. Dopo essersi unito alla resistenza, realizza, infatti, una straordinaria serie di ritratti dei partigiani, che lo fanno notare per stile e tenica. Dal 1949 Izis inizia a collaborare regolarmente con la rivista Paris-Match (per la quale fotografa molti artisti dell'epoca: da Grace Kelly a Cocteau, Colette, Gina Lollobrigida, Édith Piaf e Orson Welles). Nel 1951 pubblica, con i testi dell'amico Prévert, quello che da molti viene considerato il suo capolavoro: "Paris des Rêves". L'opera ottiene un enorme successo ed ancora oggi rimane un'eccellente testimonianza della sua arte. La fotografia di Israëlis Bidermanas ricerca una perfezione formale, non solo nelle tonalità e nei rapporti geometrici, ma nella simbiosi tra contenuto, tempo ed azione. Nonostante le sue foto appaiano semplici, risultano cariche di realismo poetico. Con uno scatto forse meno romantico di Doisneau, ma immerso da una malinconia mista a dolcezza, Izis riflette nei suoi soggetti la dura esperienza della guerra. Nelle immagini dei quartieri popolari, dove la strada è teatro della vita, ogni dettaglio diventa motivo per raccontare la realtà umana. Bidermanas usa a suo piacimento le forme e la luce per plasmare dei mondi che prediligono atmosfere notturne e misteriose per rivelarci l'atmosfera di libertà ritrovata e ritorno alla vita. - (English version) Israëlis Bidermanas (17 January 1911, Marijampolė -- 16 May 1980, Paris), who worked under the name of Izis, was a Lithuanian-Jewish photographer who worked in France and is best known for his photographs of French circuses and of Paris. Born in Marijampolė, present-day Lithuania, Bidermanas arrived in France in 1930 to become a painter. In 1933, he directed a photographic studio in the 13th Arrondissement of Paris. During World War II, being a Jew, he had to leave occupied Paris. He went to Ambazac, in the Limousin, where he adopted the pseudonym Izis and where he was arrested and tortured by the Nazis. He was freed by the French Resistance and became an underground fighter. At that time he photographed his companions, including Colonel Georges Guingouin. The poet and underground fighter Robert Giraud was the first to write about Izis in the weekly magazine Unir, a magazine created by the Resistance. Upon the liberation of France at the end of World War II, Izis had a series of portraits of maquisards (rural resistance fighters who operated mainly in southern France) published to considerable acclaim. He returned to Paris where he became friends with French poet Jacques Prévert and other artists. Izis became a major figure in the mid-century French movement of humanist photography — also exemplified by Brassaï, Cartier-Bresson, Doisneau and Ronis — with "work that often displayed a wistfully poetic image of the city and its people." For his first book, Paris des rêves (Paris of Dreams), Izis asked writers and poets to contribute short texts to accompany his photographs, many of which showed Parisians and others apparently asleep or daydreaming. The book, which Izis designed, was a success. Izis joined Paris Match in 1950 and remained with it for twenty years, during which time he could choose his assignments. Meanwhile, his books continued to be popular with the public. Among the numerous books by Izis, Gerry Badger and Martin Parr have especial praise for Le Cirque d'Izis, "published in 1965, but bearing the stamp of an earlier era". - This video is purely fan-made, if you (owners) want to remove this video, please CONTACT ME DIRECTLY before doing anything.
