Artist Week 8- Photographer shout out

1. Cindy Sherman

"If I knew what the picture was going to be like I wouldn’t make it. It was almost like it was made already...the challenge is more about trying to make what you can’t think of."

An American photographer that is known for her portrayal of feminine stereotypes.  Yay for feminism.


2. David La Chapelle

The irony and the outrageous images he captures the hilarity of pop culture.

3.  Suntek Chung

The mix of being Korean and being raised in Richmond make his photos both funny and unique.





4. Arnold Newman

To contrast the last two artists, I picked the classic black and white photographer Newman for his timeless, simplicity.

5. Paul Strand

A modernist photographer that helped photography as an art form.
