And then there was the inevitable drop. And when the night was over and the white wine was over and the dancing was over, she sat in the corner like a child, with everything gone. I saw her sitting quietly without expression on her face, and I walked towards her but I wouldn’t photograph her without her knowledge of it. And as I came with the camera, I saw that she was not saying no.”1 Avedon managed to capture one of the most photographed stars with her public façade down, producing an image that provides a rare glimpse of her inner life.“]]> 2019-10-25 17:56:07 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/402708416 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403435791 The main subject is the actress Charlize Theron. The color value is very intense and the picture itself is as well very intense with the water fall rushing down the side of the rocks. The image has a sense of leading lines leading down and to the right: the water rushing down, the dress blowing in the wind, and Theron's body overall is stretching towards the right and slanting down.]]> 2019-10-28 16:34:30 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403435791 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403596869 The main subject of this piece is the two elderly woman sitting on a bench bordering an avenue in New York City. ]]> 2019-10-28 21:34:13 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403596869 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403601004 The subject of this photograph is a mother caring for her children, as catwoman. This photo demonstrates what some people would call a normal, regular or even an easy life of a mother. That said, I believe that in this photo, Dulce Pinzon is trying to illustrate that the mother is indeed a superhero by the way she cares for her children. Dulce Pinzon gave this photo a very warm tint/hue reflecting the warm nature of the mother.]]> 2019-10-28 21:49:45 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403601004 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403603901 This artist is mainly based off instagram. The subject of this piece is two African American woman: Funso & Nakeria. T
he focal points are the women's faces that take up majority of the frame. It highlights all the features of their faces and is close up so you can see every detail. ]]> 2019-10-28 22:01:26 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403603901 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403632312 The main subject of this artwork would have to be about everyday West African life of a brother and sister being happy and joyous as they are close and having fun. This piece uses a good deal of balance between the background and the foreground as there are not too many chairs or other items in the back as compared to them. There is also a strong mood as they seem very happy and playful and content. ]]> 2019-10-29 00:01:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403632312 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403632618 In this piece the main subject is a man with his pit bull terrier who are playing around in the middle of the street. The photo shows a good balance between the foreground and the background, with the photographer Jamel Shabazz choosing to have a clear focus on his main subjects. There’s a contrast in the colors displayed in this picture with the main focus having a brighter color then the background. Also the photographer was able to capture motion in this picture which makes the image more interesting to look at and sets a more playful mood.  ]]> 2019-10-29 00:03:23 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403632618 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403648136 The main subject of this photograph is a child wearing a papier-mâché witch mask for Halloween. They have on a robe with bats and stars and stand in front of a brick wall with chalk writing. The photo is mostly dark grey or black, which helps the mask and staff stand out against the background and robes. ]]> 2019-10-29 00:56:46 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403648136 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403667919 As said by the artist Kana Waikwaiku this solo exhibition is meant to  inquire “ the personal lives of everyday people living with various mental health issues.“ The main subject of this photograph is the lady who’s faced is turned away from the camera, which is complimented by a second photo that had the lady looking up into the distance but not towards the camera. This woman and the others that engaged with this exhibition were photographed while talking openly about there conditions. These artworks are meant to show a fragmented yet intimate nature of human conditions. Each one of the portraits is further exemplified by a personal interview from each of the subjects.]]> 2019-10-29 02:09:57 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403667919 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403680894 The photograph depicts a woman examining herself in a mirror that has presumably been struck and shattered by a bullet. There is text surrounding the image saying the title of the piece, “you are not yourself”.  Layering is present in this artwork due to the use of collage. These are the words layered over the photograph. There is also the use no background which creates a closed space. ]]> 2019-10-29 03:04:35 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403680894 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/403955390 David LaChapelle reframes classic religious paintings that portray Jesus as the main subject of every work. Through this approach, the subject is depicted as heavenly, as the apostles are depicted as more regular, realistic human beings. They seem to be of different races, ethnicities, genders, occupations, and many other distinguishing characteristics.

We can see that there is no exact main subject but there is a main theme which is the expressions on the peoples faces. Weegee wanted to elaborate the relationship between human expression and immigration in the 1940's. We can see that there are meshing body squished together in a confined space as if they were stuck in the photo itself. The photo is in black and white giving a more bleak attitude when showcasing the hardships and difficulties of Jewish immigration into New York. ]]> 2019-10-29 17:18:39 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/404021816 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/404206692 John Baldessari's work normally questions what is expected of art through the use and manipulation of photography. This photo shows astronauts in black and white, which contrasts with the bright primary colors covering their faces. The photograph is taken from the front with a good profile of the astronauts and the use of symmetry.  This symmetry is seen in the astronauts' suits, this adds a sense of balance and proportion to the piece.                      -Erin Haddad  ]]> 2019-10-30 00:21:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/404206692 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/404267100 Raquel uses her photography as a chance to represent the Black female perspective and, most importantly, strive for inclusivity. Through subject Cassie Ventura, Raquel manipulates color and lighting to convey her subject's "naked" beauty as well as add glamor and a sense of sophistication with the consistent neutral tones and exaggerated lighting  depicted in this photo. ]]> 2019-10-30 04:08:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/404267100 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/404557453 The first one I chose is Gabby Benkovitz’ photograph she chose. It gives off a fearful, anxious, scared, and worried feeling about the clown’s face. Their expression is very disgusted and demeaning. The tone, mood is very sad and dark. 
The second one I chose is Isobel’s photograph. The tone and mood is very happy and very free spirited. Bright colors and a wide value range. She is very peaceful and powerful and proud. There’s a lot of blue and bright and colorful tones. ]]> 2019-10-30 16:23:49 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/404557453 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/404728704 The first image I chose to talk about is Their First Murder by Weegee. This is because this photograph can be considered a perfect of example of filling the frame. The space is used wisely with people filling  up the frame to give an idea what's happening in the photo. It's also noticeable that the crowd in the photograph is quite diverse with people of all ages huddled around to look at something that's out of the frame. The other image I chose was Nuit de Noel by Malik Sidibe. This photo shows a clear focal point which is the man and woman. The emphasis on the foreground of the image conveys a sense of celebration and joy. ]]> 2019-10-30 20:58:57 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/404728704 https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/406046125 This photograph is a part of one of Corinne Day's many exhibitions. The exhibition holds 4 photographs in total, all having one subject, and in black and white. Two portraits and two full body's. This portrait is very up close and personal, showing the subject facial features. It's very symmetrical, and it focuses on only the face. ]]> 2019-11-04 03:19:02 UTC https://padlet.com/cheznous/5rcxakou994c/wish/406046125
