About Ordí Calder
You can separate the understanding of my work in Fine Art Autoral (Below you will find the About) and Fine Art Classico being that the Autoral is Conceptual Abstract and Classic Fine Art absorbs the Classical Categories as Architecture, People, Nature, Landscapes.. These are works of what today I understand as my stage of studies, as an autodidact photographer, without knowing that I was doing art, to find the paths also as a self-taught. I wanted to make great pictures. To inspire myself in the pillars of photography, Ansel Adams, Cartier-Bresson, Eliott Erwitt, Ernst Haas, Thomaz Farkas, Sebastião Salgado .. Since 2002 I have been mixing on the internet among the Portuguese in an extinct site Fotografia-na.net.. I saw that they made black and white photography, but with a layer of art given by the look, by the poetry.. then usefilm.com and Flickr! As of 2011, demarcated the paths, I concentrated on the work with Photography Autoral. Find the appropriate places to show these works, get recognition from the jury stands in the national and international contest, selection edicts, books and art catalogs. Classic photographs then come to my collection, the best among the best. One of the methods of my photography work is to select, and on top of this selection, select other time. Repeatedly until it is no longer possible to remove anything from the selection. Simple and developed in practice. Today my Collection, Autoral or Classical are "distilled" ten (10) times. I call it 10 Stars. To amplify my work processes I decided to present the two collections together, in the same site and I count on your understanding in this parallel.

"Ordí Calder is a fine art photographer from Brazil whose focus on the geometric interplay of light and shadow on atomized compositions take us on an arcane quest for the essential components of reality. Until a few months ago, if you were to ask to make a plausible connection between G.W. F. Hegel (a German philosopher whose existence on this earth straddled the 18th and 19th centuries), Fritz Lang (the German Expressionist film maker who gave us “Metropolis” in 1926), and Edward Weston (the American wunderkind of that 1st generation modernist fine art photographers) I’d be hard put to do so. But that was prior to encountering Ordi’s body of work. Today, the task is easy." by Jonathan Raddatz. Jonathan is a painter, writer and scholar specializing in the religious and philosophical landscape of Late Antiquity. He spends his time translating ancient texts, painting in the studio, taking his kids on field trips to museums, and writing about all kinds of things having to do with Early Christianity, philosophy, art history, and contemporary art.
