Photo IV: Week One Due: February 3, Thursday, before 3:30 pm.


Photo IV: Week One Due: February 3, Thursday, before 3:30 pm.

Your assignment: 
find any three images from three different current exhibitions in any large city, anywhere except Denver, AND explain why you chose each of the three images. (use my links posted here):






















The exhibitions MUST be in a physical space, and NOT just an on-line exhibition.

Also, link from the image or description of the image to the website where you found the image!

THEN upload any three brand new, recent images of your own AND explain why you chose each of the three images.

HERE IS MY EXAMPLE:

ONE:


from San Francisco MOMA

Performance 10: Alison Knowles

January 13–February 4, 2011


I selected this image because it first made me hungry but then it made me lose my appetite.

TWO:

Guggenheim Berlin

AGATHE SNOW: ALL ACCESS WORLD

January 28–March 30, 2011

I selected this image because it is colorful.
 THREE:
Image: William Eggleston, Algiers, Louisiana, c. 1972, from William Eggleston's Guide, 1976. Dye-transfer print; 16 13/16 x 11 in. (42.5 x 27.9 cm). The J. Paul Getty Museum, Villa Collection, Malibu, California. © Eggleston Artistic Trust, courtesy Cheim & Read, New York.
 
William Eggleston: Democratic Camera—Photographs and Video, 1961–2008
Broad Contemporary Art Museum, Level 2 at LACMA
October 31, 2010–January 16, 2011
I chose this image because I like seeing Eggleston's shadow in the mud puddle. It makes me laugh.

Now three of my recent photos and why I selected each one:

December 2010, Brad and Rick, at Kris and Ted's, Silver Plume
I picked this photo because of their hand gestures, and they are son and father.

December 2010, Georgetown, at Normando and Lauren's
I picked this photo because they are daughter and father

December 2010, Silver Plume Large Town Hall
I picked this photo because the child looks worried
