Balanced Equation (Heftet (myke permer))

A Finnish American photographer, writer, and educator, Arno Rafael Minkkinen developed a profound love for photography as an advertising copywriter. 'What happens inside your mind can happen inside a camera' (a line he wrote for 'Minolta cameras') became his artistic credo as a graduate student at Rhode Island School of Design studying with Harry Callahan and Aaron Siskind. Forty years later, his self-portraits continue to be made simply using single-negative exposures with no manipulation in the camera or the darkroom.
