First, select 10 Famous
Photographers, that you like, and
list their name, type of photography, and 2-3 images that showcase their style.
Upload all info to your Google drive account and I
will print (unless we get the printers working) Then, you will cut and collage
this information in your sketchbooks. You can add notes to each photographer
(they may influence your work later this year).
Any, questions?
Once finished, select one photographer to research further. You will need the following information about your chosen photographer:
- Full name of individual
- Date and place of birth & indicate years of life (and if still living)
- How influenced-by others in field of photography
- How influenced-by circumstances in life
- Typical subject matter of photographs made by this artist
- What this artist is trying/ tried to communication
- Typical style of work
- Geographic places this photographer shot
- Significant contribution(s) to photography (or the art world)
- What they themselves said/say about their work (quotes OK)
- What others have said about the work
Include 5 examples of this person’s photography, either photocopied (from a print source) or computer generated images (from an electronic source). These visual images need to include the photograph’s title, year made, must be at least 5x7 inches and of good visual quality (i.e., readable-not overly pixelated) to be glued into your sketchbook.
