5. Fake or Not?

Image
Fake or Not? There are many issues surrounding Documentary Photographs, and the main one is the veracity of the photographs and if they are fake or real? Here are two very recognisable documentary photographs.  The one on the left is Arthur Rothstein's photograph 'Cattle Skull, Badlands', 1936. Rothstein was part of the Farm Security Administration, or the 'FSA', and was one of many photographers who were commissioned to photograph and document the effect that the Depression had on many rural parts of America. The 'FSA' was created to stress the efforts that must have been made to improve the lifestyle of share croppers  tenants  very poor landowning farmers and attempt to relocate them to land more suitable for their farming needs. The 'FSA' is very well known for it's influential photography program, even though it was small, between the years of 1935-1944 . Other images by Rothstein? Same Skulls? To begin we have the problem...

28. Carmarthenshire Leaflet!

Image
Over the weekend me and my Mother set out to photograph the castles in our area. My mother, knowing I was planning on doing a project on Castles, managed to grab a small leaflet about the Castles in Carmarthenshire, which was ridiculously handy because it even contained a map which showed you where the castles were!

9. Street Portraits - Vivian Maier

Image
http://www.vivianmaier.com/ "A riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma." 'Piecing together Vivian Maier’s life can easily evoke Churchill’s famous quote about the vast land of Tsars and commissars that lay to the east. A person who fit the stereotypical European sensibilities of an independent liberated woman, accent and all, yet born in New York City. Someone who was intensely guarded and private, Vivian could be counted on to feistily preach her own very liberal worldview to anyone who cared to listen, or didn’t. Decidedly unmaterialistic, Vivian would come to amass a group of storage lockers stuffed to the brim with found items, art books, newspaper clippings, home films, as well as political tchotchkes and knick-knacks.' - From VivianMaier.com Vivian Maier was a nanny by occupation, but she has now wowed the world with her photography in which she captured some of the most interesting and peculiar aspects of Urban America from the 195...
