#subject matter

The subject matter is very tricky. It's about the Munich massacre and what Mossad did afterwards with the assassination squads. I think it's a turning point in history, especially for the Palestinians. ↗

I have been frequently accused of deliberately twisting subject matter to my point of view. Above all, I know that life for a photographer cannot be a matter of indifference. Opinion often consists of a kind of criticism. But criticism can come out of love. ↗

Content arises out of certain considerations about form, material, context-and that when that subject matter is sufficiently far away. ↗

I'd never painted anything before. I was quite content to take other people's work since I didn't care anyway about the subject matter. I approached subject matter as a scoundrel. I had nothing to say about it whatsoever. I only wanted to make these exciting paintings. ↗

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual. ↗

I'm not really sure what social message my art carries, if any. And I don't really want it to carry one. I'm not interested in the subject matter to try to teach society anything, or to try to better our world in any way. ↗

Most painting in the European tradition was painting the mask. Modern art rejected all that. Our subject matter was the person behind the mask. ↗
