沃克·埃文斯的摄影风格内敛、节制、平淡,在这一切的背后,或者说是深处,蕴藏着难以察觉的审美主张。埃文斯抗拒肤浅的雕饰和圆滑的讨巧,对任何形式有组织的运动持有高度的质疑,无法容忍凌驾于创造性工作之上的外部权威,也始终不认同他当年任职的美国农业部重新安置管理委员会(RA)和美国农业安全管理局(FSA)用政治裹挟摄影的方针。 Walker Evans’s style of photography introverted, temperate, plain, behind all these, or in the depths, contains imperceptible aesthetic proposition. Evans was resistant to superficial carvings and sleek tips, was highly skeptical about any form of organized movement, did not tolerate external authority over creative work, and disagreed with the Department of Agriculture resettlement Management Board (RA) and the United States Agricultural Security Administration (FSA) with political coercion photography approach.
