EinBlick in die Profi-Taschen: Insight my "LIFE" bag: Zoran Milich

Weniger ist mehr, ist das Credo von dem in NYC lebenden Fotografen Zoran Milich .

Eine LEICA M9 mit Lederhandschlaufe, ein Summicron 28mm / 2,0 und ein ipad begleitete ihn durch den New Yorker Strassendschungel um für die "LIFE.COM Gallery "Gothamatic" das urbane Leben der Stadt zu dokumentieren. Bei der Tasche selbst dürfte es sich um eine älteres Modell von Domke handeln. Etwas zu trinken gehört natürlich mit auf jede Fototour ebenso wie ein gutes Notizbuch.

Ansonsten ist Milich mit Zeiss Objektiven für die M-LEICA, aber auch mit seiner Canon Ausrüstung unterwegs, manchmal auch auf dem Fahrrad quer durch die Strassenschluchten von Manhattan. 
Einen Einblick bekommt man HIER.

Ausserdem veröffentlichte Milich interessante und eigenwillige Kinderfotobücher.



Zoran Milich's work was featured in LIFE.COM's gallery "Gothamatic" documenting life in New York City from his unique perspective. Also featured in LIFE.COM was his work at the Fall 2011 Fashion Week in New York City in the gallery "Live at Fashion Week".

A LITTLE MORE ABOUT ZORAN MILICH

Zoran Milich was born in a small fishing village on the Dalmatian coast. He became fascinated with photography as a young boy emigrating to North America. In awe of the changing landscape and endless stream of new people, Milich wanted to remember it all. As an adult, his work as a photojournalist would take him from the former Eastern Bloc countries to Cuba, Brazil, Haiti and the Arctic. He is currently based in New York City.

Following an apprenticeship with German photographers, Milich began his work as a photojournalist in 1980, producing photo essays in black and white.

Two years before the fall of the Berlin Wall, Milich moved to the Eastern Bloc where he produced photo essays.

He documented the early days of the Velvet Revolution in Czechoslovakia, and was among the earliest chroniclers of the rise of Yugoslav strongman Slobodan Milosevic, and the dismantling of that country.

Milich has also examined the struggle of young athletes in Cuba. He spent time on the field and in the homes of the Cuban National Baseball Team in Cuba's Sancti Spiritus in the year that many of its members defected to the United States to play in the major leagues.

And venturing into Brazil's back alleys, he extensively documented the preparations for the Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro, giving the viewer a rare glimpse behind the scenes.

Inspired by the birth of his daughter, Milich has produced four critically acclaimed books for children published by kidscan press. The books are whimsical photo essays that help us see our cities in new ways, as Milich spots letters and numbers in the most unlikely places. The City ABC's Book, City Signs, City Colors, and City 123  are available at the Guggenheim and Museum Of Modern Art (MOMA) book stores in New York City.
