Fall 2009 Week One

CINDY SHERMAN
Untitled (#468), 2008
Color photograph
70 3/16 x 54 inches unframed (178.3 x 137.2 cm)
Ed. of 6

Cindy Sherman June 7 - September 19 Gagosian Gallery

I chose this photograph because the woman looks very uncomfortable and the point of view seems low.




Richard Avedon
Suzy Parker and Robin Tattersall, dress by Dior, Place de la Concorde, Paris, August 1956
© 2009 The Richard Avedon Foundation

Avedon Fashion 1944 -2000 at the International Center of Photography May 15 - Sept 20, 2009

I selected this image because it is very carefree and happy. The point of view seems low and I like that too.




Marcia Resnick (American, born 1950). Glenn O'Brien's TV Party, NYC. 1980. Color photograph. 8 x 10"

Looking at Music: side 2 Museum of Modern Art, NY, NY


I initially chose this photograph because of the awkward composition. The photographer shot from a low position and there is a great deal of empty space at the top of the image. The people posing have their legs cut off.
