“Art is risk made visible”
Arno Rafael Minkkinen, Photographer

Saunderstown, Rhode Island, 1974
He works alone, his images are all unmanipulated, made with one exposure, with no retouching. ‘I do not use an assistant to look through the camera; otherwise she or he also becomes the photographer. Instead, I have nine seconds to get into the scene, or if I am using a long cable release bulb, I can press it and throw it out of the picture, knowing nine seconds later the camera will fire’ source
Some crazy photos! Definitely not for those who don’t want to put their life at risk for the sake of art.
