Susan Sontag- On Photography
"Even when photographers are most concerned with mirroring reality, they are still haunted by tacit imperatives of taste and conscience."
"Photographs really are experience captured, and the camera is the ideal arm of consciousness in its acquisitive mood."
Revisiting Carrie Mae Weems’s Landmark “Kitchen Table Series”
"Weems’s black-and-white photographs are like mirrors, each reflecting a collective experience"
"I think that most work that’s made by Black artists is considered to be about Blackness. Unlike work that’s made by white artists, which is assumed to be universal at its core."
The Cindy Sherman Effect
"-and by limiting her subject matter strictly to herself, while at the same time excavating countless permutations, she inspired a generation of younger artists to explore their own identities across a range of mediums"
"Cindy Sherman has shown herself to be the ultimate master of self-morphing, utilizing everything from old-fashioned makeup and prosthetics to digital technology, inventing and portraying extraordinary alter egos and multiple identities that brilliantly reflect our image-saturated culture"
