With Light'
John's invented
ground
breaking technique enabled him to win top international photographic
awards and to have over 20 One-man major exhibitions. He was the first
to be able to combine both a colour positive and a negative image
on the same transparency film emulsion (Kodachrome), for several
years no one knew how he achieved his amazing pictures. Since
then his original transparencies have been scanned and he has carefully
made only minor improvments to his original images digitally, to
create these large prints.
"My own invented 'Painting with Light', or 'Light Painting' technique involved
photographing projected images that were not often projected on to a screen,
creating 'special effects' before digital computer manipulation existed. I tried to create Contemporary
Pictures that did more than surprise - but that inspire!"
"I use pure
photography to express ideas, or thoughts rather than reality, I trust
that my limited edition pictures will intrigue, cause interest and be
appreciated as very original art works. All these 'Painting with
Light' pictures were created in the 1960's with Kodakchrome film." John

'Spirit of Spring'
(picture 003) is the first ever transparency,
consisting of both a colour
positive and negative image, on the same Kodachrome emulsion.
The portrait is blended with a negative of a red tulip.
"regarded
as one of Britain's most original photographers."
The Times.
"A woman's face
was exquisitely metamorphosed with the cup of a yellow tulip - a Femme
- Fleur Picasso might have perpetrated had he taken to
photography."
Arts Revue.
"Indeed, since the
photographic image is made by the action of light, truth to light is
truth to the medium of photography! All John Cohen's
photographs are made, simply and solely, by the use of light.
His magic is the magic of the luminous, his poetry is that of the
chiaroscuro. The attractions of his work is all the greater
for the purity of the photographic technique, and its appeal all the
more universal for being couched in an imagery common to all men and
intelligible to all."
Sir George F. Pollock Bt.,
M.A., F.R.P.S., F.R.S.A. (Past President of
The Royal Photographic Society)
"John N. Cohen's
artwork incorporates several genres--ready-made objects, digital
photography and Impressionist style of light painting - to create a
striking and surreal effect that has a strong impact upon the
viewer." Claudia Moscovici.

"Personally,
I experience the greatest degree of pleasure in having contact with works of
art. They furnish me with
happy feelings of an intensity such as I cannot derive from other
realms."

"How
much better it would be, if all these pictures could be shown where
they belong, rather than competing with each other on an exhibition
wall."

John Neville Cohen's large
pictures add a bright new dimension to any wall. Sophisticated,
original and contemporary, always a talking point, they intrigue, yet
remain intelligible to all. John's limited edition pictures, (only
8 of each), have great investment potential too! Not yet one of the
big names, but Arts Review mentioned Picasso when describing John's
'Spirit of Spring' and the exhibitions to date are impressive. Now
is the best time for astute buyers to buy, just consider how very special
John's photography is.
