Do you have a toolbox, full of tools? Or do you keep your tools in a bag or packet? The spanner and screwdriver for building the trampoline have arrived in a small packet with all the other stuff. There's no need for a big packet with many sizes. For the majority of people, tools are merely utilitarian. Can they be a subject for art? Manuel Alvarez Bravo was a Mexican photographer. He took a photo of Frida Kahlo, but his typical subjects were ordinary, everyday things, not portraits of famous people or grand events. He tried to be ironic or surreal. This (1931) print is entitled "Tools Instrumental". It is a gelatin silver print on paper. He also wanted to show the cultural heritage, peasant population and indigenous roots of the Mexican people. And he liked textures, rough and smooth.
