Die helle Kammer (La chambre claire, Paris 1980) ist ein Essay des französischen Philosophen Roland Barthes. Barthes vermittelt hier die Möglichkeit, eine Phänomenologie und ein Kompendium der Photographie entwickeln zu wollen. Der zweite Teil hingegen ist sehr intim, womit er lehrhafte Aussagen zur Photographie aus dem ersten Teil wiederum demaskiert (vgl. Dekonstruktion). In diesem Teil erscheint das für seinen medientheoretischen Diskurs über die Photographie wichtigste Photo, das als einziges Photo in dem Band nicht abgedruckt ist. Es ist eine Kindheits-Photographie seiner Mutter, auf die er bei der Suche nach dem für ihn Wesentlichen seiner Mutter beim Durchstöbern der Fotos nach ihrem Tod zufällig stößt. Barthes stellt somit die Subjektivität in seinem Diskurs über die Photographie heraus: „Es existiert ausschließlich für mich (...) bestenfalls würde es für Ihr Studium von Interesse sein: Epoche, Kleidung, Photogenität; doch verletzen würde es Sie nicht im mindesten.“ ..."

Born in St. Petersburg (Leningrad), Russia. Igor Posner moved to Los Angeles, California in the early 90s. He studied biology and biochemistry at the University of California Los Angeles, where he first starts to take pictures and experiment in the dark room. Early stories include photographs taken in south-central Los Angeles, and Tijuana, Mexico. Igor returned to Russia in 2006, taking up photography full time. In 2007, Igor moved from Los Angeles to New York City. At present, he lives between St. Petersburg and New York.

"New York in the Eighties: A Photographic History"
I’ve been photographing the streets and subways of New York for the past 30 years. When young people today look at my shots from the 1980’s, they are aghast. To them, New York of the 1980’s is almost unrecognizable. And they are right. Some older people are nostalgic for “the good old days.” For example, they remember the Times Square of the 80’s… And what they remember is not so much the danger but the grittiness and (for lack of a better word) the authenticity. Yes, there was sleaze, but there were also video arcades, cheap movies, restaurants, and weird places. These same people resent the “Disney-ification” of Times Square and the gentrification of virtually all of Manhattan and many areas of the boroughs, and the loss of cheap housing and local stores everywhere. Others’ reactions to these same photos could not be more different. If they’re over a certain age, they remember the high crime, the twin crises of AIDS and crack, the racial tension, the lurid tabloid headlines about the latest street crime. They say: It was a nightmare, and thank God it’s over.
Of course, both views are right.
