An explicit range of human expression is revealed
in the spectrum of the fine arts. A declaration to mankind,
a bestial cry reflecting global events and human folly
is communicated.  The great social thinkers and actors
of the next generation are direct products of those who archive the great social thinkers and actors of current times. The crucial concern is the irrational, virtually unpredictable nature of human sentiment and behavior, for, without accurate documentation, there is no way to learn from our mistakes.  From Freud, to Marx, Croce to Pareto, they at least agreed what was deepest in human conduct largely fell into a pattern of mere repetition.

To effectively and impartially document global current events it is our resounding responsibility to capture suffering
and failure as well as celebration and success.
Dominant ideas at any given time are extremely difficult
to assess with accuracy. The most reliable indicator
is not what people say but what they do- and thus
it is our mission at Zeduce to capture such pivotal moments through reportage photography. Photography has the ability
to fill a recognized gap: a detailed study of the inter-relationship between thought and action in relatively brief periods of time.

In this manner, authenticity is connected with creativity:
the impetus to action must arise from the person(s)
in question and the imprisonment of time.

Zeduce Reportage aspires first to petrify and then elaborate on the events and actors that have come to characterize
our time. The goal is to define an intellectual,
visual epoch that will chronicle current events with
a subjective lens - to be an observer of society,
thrust forward in a discrete yet finite fashion.
It is imperative to salvage our rationalist heritage
on this modern, decisively shifting the axis of tradition.
We strive to make room for the new definition of man
as something more than a logically calculating animal.

Together the members of Zeduce constitute a cluster
of creative minds. From our present vantage we hope
to contribute to a common store of social ideas available
made available on a grand scale. Global current events
will be illuminated to the masses with artistic appeal
and good intention.
