Niagara Falls. Photograph by Stephanie. 1972
Ideas were gelling for me.
Art shown internationally or locally as well as literature embeds interesting ideas about the human condition.
Re; the Arts, questions may always be asked about, genre, form and style.
Contemporary photographs, of any time, give their resonance within the glance of relationship or ambiguity. The early photographer looked for punctum. *
Version of this type of image are still historically upheld. Some other
versions of image making were restarted to be a trend.
There is an alternative to a punctum image gathering.
I began to consider the alternative
of realist images to Performance images.
This tome has become one of respect for intellectual precedents and for several artists that I met or who I had acquaintance with that set me to a later path about which to write.
* Punctum. a word coined for use by (Roland Barthes, a writer on photography)
