Harold Edgerton Art

American, 1903-1990
Harold Eugene “Doc” Edgerton was a professor of electrical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Edgerton was a pioneer in using short duration electronic flash in photography, capturing such events as balloons at different stages of bursting; bullets impacting apples, bananas, and playing cards; and the surfaces of various liquids in motion. He created many striking images illuminating phenomena occurring too fast for the naked eye to see which now are housed in art museums worldwide.

"Golf Tee-Off" Photograph
By Harold Edgerton
Located in Toronto, Ontario
Science, art and technology converged in the works of American inventor/photographer Harold Edgerton (1903-1990). While Edgerton started his career as an electrical engineer - his inventions led to some of the most iconic and innovative images of the 20th century: milk drops, bullets in mid-flight, birds and sports. All of his images captured the imperceptible detail and beauty of motion. In the 1930's Edgerton invented a device called the "Stroboscope" that produced intense flashes of light. The invention allowed photographic images to be instantly recorded that until then had been impossible to capture. Curiously during most of his career Edgerton was more active in the science and technology realms - working with the US' Atomic Energy Commission, Jacque Cousteau...

In Flight

Science, art and technology converged in the works of American inventor/photographer Harold Edgerton (1903-1990). While Edgerton started his career as an electrical engineer - his inventions led to some of the most iconic and innovative images of the 20th century. In the 1930's Edgerton invented a device called the "Stroboscope" that produced intense flashes of light. The invention allowed photographic images to be instantly recorded that until then had been impossible to capture. Over the succeeding decades Edgerton created arresting images of milk drops, water coming out of a faucet, bullets in mid-flight, dancers, athletes, and of course birds. Images that captured the details and beauty of motion. Curiously during most of his career Edgerton was more active in the science and technology realms - working with the US' Atomic Energy Commission, Jacque Cousteau and teaching at MIT. To this day Edgerton is still described as "Papa Flash" This work can be found in several major collections including the Harvard Art Museum. "Pigeon in Flight...
