PHOTOGRAPHY/ If you were an artist (photographer), what kind of photos would you take?

Sally Mann

Sally Mann is an American photographer, best known for her large black and white photographs, first of her young children, then of landscapes and lastly of dog’s bones.In spite of the controversy, the photos of her children are just photos of children made for their mother, but with an extra constituent, poetry. The Mann’s work is full in feeling, and also it is easy to note how each photo of her children has sometime that tell to viewers. Unfairly the ambiguity has been a factor that has allowed bad criticism on her work. Nonetheless, this ambiguity is not in Mann work, it is in the mind of the people that supposedly know about art, and can decide who is an artist and what art is.

Mann’s work could be defined how provocative or impudent, but it is not. Mann’s photography is just her life style, the way she conceives the world. People could say that Mann has taken advantage of her children, however for her children were just good models when she was trying to pick up something beauty to make pictures, just like happened whit the dog’s bones’ pictures.

IT HAS BEEN THE UNIT ABOUT MUSIC

WE FINISHED IT. AND NOW LET’S TALK ABOUT CONCLUSIONS

The last week the class made presentations about some of the songs mentioned in class before, and also about some special historical topic. The presentations were tidy, most of the groups used the same order, what made essay the understanding. Definitively, the part most difficult of the presentation was created the new song, and particularly in the case of my group to try of to sing it, too. However, it also was incredibly difficult choose the song to imitate. On the hand, the history-topic was tasks easy to perform due to there were many topics to pick up. Every presentation had something special; for instance, some of them used creativeness Power Point presentations, others presented excellent arguments about why they choose the song to imitate, and others made an interesting debate about their artist. Finally, I think everybody (this take account of me too) should improve the eye contact and posture.
The unit of music was simply a great unit. Music will be always a good topic to discus. In this occasion we talk about music’s genres and its represents. Maybe, in a future time, we can talk about the role of the music in human society, or its origins, among other things.
