Fall 2009 Week One

CINDY SHERMAN

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.

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.

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.
