  • Report on your initial reactions to the artist's work. 

    I noticed a lot of people on his photos. I also noticed that most of them have a social meaning.


  • How would you categorize their work?

    I would say it's something like street photography but also documentary photography.


  • Compare their works to works you’ve seen before. How do they compare? Do you like them or dislike them and why?

    I realized that his work looks similar to Elliott Erwitt's photography but I think Winogrand's photography involves more visible social meanings.


  • If someone made their work today, how would it be different or the same?

    It would include more recent social problems and social stuff in general.


  • Analyze the quote at the end of the slide show.

    “Photography is not about the thing photographed. It is about how that thing looks photographed.” I think that this is very true since most stuff can be photographed but it won’t necessarily look good if you don’t

    give it a meaning.


  • Make sure to include images that stood out to you either from the powerpoint or ones found online.
