Nixon is displayed at the Modern Museum of Art in Fort Worth. It’s what you could call a photo timeline. My first impression when seeing the artwork was, “Wow! This is amazing.” I could not believe just how long, and stretched out everything was. I thought it was very interesting to see how all the photographs were all in a specific order. In 1975, Nicholas Nixon began photographing his wife Bebe and her three sisters every year. The colors of the photos were all in black and white; I think Nixon…
sexually perverse, but the point of the photo was to show Cyrus in a natural paradigm, little make-up or clothing. The misinterpretation of Annie Leibovits work takes root in the sexualization of the human form seen so often in America. Annie Developed interesting techniques of lighting in her career, also. Her sets consisted of elaborately placed reflectors and lights- tons of them. These lighting techniques create the eerie or magical feel of her photos. Her lighting allows her to convey different…

Not only were Schulz’s images inevitably ruined due to sunlight, the medium of Painting as well as objects of photography were also in the line of destruction. Once Dr Schulze had figured a way…
Harry Townsend January 23, 2015 Journal #8 Throughout different periods the purpose and intent of art has changed with time. Different artists make their art to appeal to different audiences and for different purposes. One factor that has remained constant throughout art history, however, is the goals of artists to engage in social and political commentary about the environment around them. This trend can be seen in the artistic style of Barbara Kruger in the modern era. Barbara Kruger is an American…
transformations in random photography and projecting them onto a larger surface in order to create a new photo. Random photography is not necessarily intentional but coincidental.
