Photography is a form of art that I’ve always believed I could understand/relate to the most. I’ve always enjoyed being behind the lens and observing others photographs. The way that Sally Mann discusses her own photography and different methods represents how I would want to approach photography. She explains that the meaning behind all of her work is simply because it’s fun, even if that’s hard to believe. I like the idea that she does photography simply because she loves it. She goes on to…

inspired Muybridge to take his ideas further. He went on to invent a high speed film, able to capture the image of a moving animal faster than the human eye can see. The world at this time was in the midst of a global change in technology with the rise of the railroad system and still photography. Muybridge took photography and motion to a new level by creating the zoopraxiscope which projected his images of animals in motion on a screen, creating moving pictures. Muybridge’s photo experiments…

Growing up, I remember always looking out the car window and staring at all the tall buildings. I’ve always been fascinated by the little things in life. This artwork instantly reminded me of how I looked at buildings myself as a child. I wondered if Hugh Mackenzie and I had something in common. When I came across this painting I actually stopped and stared, acknowledged and appreciated the hard work of etching. In pure etching, a metal (usually copper, zinc or steel) plate is covered with a…

My photographer is Josef Sudek, his approach to his style is more of nature and black and white, I was looking at a lot of his pictures and they mainly all look the same. He mostly shoots outdoors but, if she shoots indoors he makes sure its in a window, or in a couple there were rays of sunlight coming into the picture kind of having the same feelings as the others. It looks like he likes to use a lot of different types of light for his photography. Josef Sudek's technique seems to be very…

Photography If all searched for the perfect career, the question would be, does it exist? The term "perfect" itself is misleading, as nothing can be truly flawless, especially in societies critical point of view. However, there is a career which has incredibly many possibilities, the only limit is imagination. Notably, photography has captured the creative minds of geniuses for ages, practically since the first camera was invented, and it requires a certain character, someone who is courageous…

Barry Lopez, an award-winning author, discontinued his career as a photographer in 1981. Although photography played a great role in his life, he felt that it was distracting to his work as a writer. The amount of time he spent trying to focus the camera to capture an encounter would make him forget crucial details. He also felt uncomfortable with the way photographs turned events into a single moment. He stresses over the fact that he “makes photographs” rather than “takes them” as a way of…

the sense that it is a framed canvas hanging on the wall. But it is not quite a ‘painting’ as most people are used to experience it. Artist doesn’t use any components normally recognizable in painting: color, brushstroke, perspective. There is no image! Though we can argue that artist uses some composition by placing text almost in the middle of canvas (page?). White plain canvas, thin frame, typography, simple font remind me of typed piece of paper. Thus the painter is turned into writer.…
