An interesting article, although I take exception to some of the assumptions leveled at the gum bichromate process . . .

This is just a follow up, but the times has recently published a very good article about Larry Clark. For more info see my post on the 15th.
I have avoided this post for a while now. Initially it seemed too easy, but now I am no longer sure how I feel about the work.
I have mentioned before how I consider Jan Saudek an influence on my work. I am influenced by Saudek, Saudek is influenced by Goya, therefore am I influenced by Goya? Goya directly influences many artists’ work. His influence is one of the reasons he is in the history books. Can you take influences and subject matter, and interests and draw parallels? Does stating obvious parallels to great artists of the past make your work more significant, more artistic, more acceptable?

Sold for 1.3 million . . . if I could ever sell my work for a mere grand a pop, I’d quit my day job.

Larry Clark, of KIDS fame, has a show of his still photographs opening at the International Center for Photography. This is slightly controversial because the intended direction of the center was supposed to be photojournalism, but to me this controversy is splitting hairs. The NY Times has an interesting article dealing more with the center.
