Need suggestions of famous Photographers? |
Can anyone help with suggestions of well known photographers that I can research for a college project. I need examples of their work (presumably, given some names I will find this online), and then I have to write about their pictures. Am stumped as to who I can use. All help gratefully appreciated. Thank you. In terms of resources a lot has been written on the life of Ansel Adams. In fact I studied with his long time photo assistant David Bayles who you can contact through http://www.davidbayles.com if you want to get first hand experience as to why Ansel was a person. As much as I like Adams though I think Diane Arbus is a far more interesting and controversial person to write on. There is an almost equal amount of material which is available out there about her life and her work. Other notable Photographers who you should also consider are Edward Weston as well as Brett Weston, Joel Peter Witkin, Ej Bellocq, Imogen Cunningham as well as all the members of the F64 group. If you are more interested in the early days of photography look at Henry Fox Talbot, Henry Jackson(whose work helped establish the US park system), Matthew Brady(civil war photographer), Louis Daguerre (inventor of the first practical photo process). Really there are so many interesting characters in photo history so whatever you write on should be interesting. Dali Did the Jump book...Its just pics of people Jumping ...Quite interesting , He was crazy! David Bailey, Lord Lichfield Ansel Adams Ansel Adams, one of the greatest http://www.zpub.com/sf/history/adams.htm... http://www.ocaiw.com/catalog/index.php?l...
