Masters of Photography Diane Arbus Part 3

[allrain]

Can anyone write down what Israel says at about 2:00? "You've become an adventure"? "She was in adventure?"

Please, help me! It's for my major degree ;)

Yes, intuition and feeling against thought and preconceived ideas. Diane Arbus was absolutely right no to think about the subject she was going to photograph, because prejudice interferes with the process and gets in the way. Thought belongs to the past. Art depends on intuition, not on composition. England needs a John Szarkowski. The Photographers Gallery in London is so decadent, self-indulgent. It never learned from Paris and New York. Raoul Shade, British photojournalist.

@Kazanlives Arbus KNEW what she was doing when making the images.

Arbus selected and edited.

@Kazanlives By only following her initial instincts, this actually visualised her prejudices towards them. Had she thought more deeply, perhaps she would have shown her subjects realities rather than just her opinion. she was rarely true to her subjects and she totally exploited them.
