Summary:Jeanloup Sieff was a master of photography's essential element: writing with light. He held very high expectations of the world that it allow him both frivolity and joy. Fortunately for Sieff the times in which he lived provided a torrent of possibilities for frivolity. A joyful existence takes great thought and effort and Sieff understood the necessity of melancholy to a truly joyful existence. In his text and images he seems to share with Baudrillard a wise man's sense of joy and the inability to relate to those who are deeply unhappy. Adapted from the source document.
