I felt like this was really boring and full of statements that everyone can agree with blah!
this could have been summed up something like this (although i got bored reading this i may have missed something)
Photographes explain what is going on with out having to read anything. (this is probably bad). Photographes as art often need a person to read about what is going on. sure you can evaluate on technique and skill, but thats only if you know about that kind of stuff. considering the majorty of the population does not go to galleries when they see the image they will get even less of the story than the gallery goer. when we view photographs we never get the whole story because we can only see what is in the frame what the artist has choosen to tell us. a photograph is only one side of a story that can easly be misconstured.
