Artist #7

Artist: David Hockney
Title: Photographing Ainne Leibovitz while she is photographing me, Mojave dessert.
Date: Feb, 1983

David Hockney is born in Bradford, Yorkshire. In September, 1982, he starts to use Pentax 100 to collage photographs. I like his photographic collages. Expecially the absence of the white borders. Just like this one. I like the random shape, to make me feel relax. It seems like that he was using different settings to take the photographs. When I took look at this photo as a whole thing, I found the brightness are differnt. I do like it!

Artist#6


Artist: Joyce Neimanas
Title: R At Table (#9)
Year: 1981

Joyce Neimanas collaged these 32*40 SX70 Polaroid Prints together to make "R At Table," I think it is pretty cool!I like the composition,and the way she put those different things and a person together.


"Portraits of people appear to be real space but this is an illusion. To create the deception, 2D objects are photographed and the SX70’s are arranged to create what appear to be 3D space or items."
