Performance Photos

While executing a performance piece for another class I thought it would be great to see some pictures of it. The following were photographs taken while I was performing for the video camera. I would like to think that my posses were more focused on making a good movie rather than good pictures, but they turned out fine. I also learnt how dramatically the light affects the temperature of color.

Depth of Field

While still playing around with the Cannon Rebel digital camera I took these two pictures. This is a a great example of paying attention to the depth of field. Even though this was not achieved on purpose I find the comparison of the two images interesting.

Study of Prism

These pictures were taken using the Cannon Rebel digital camera. I noticed that the high quality lens really makes a difference in the clarity of the image. My goal with these photos was to do a study of the many different colours of light. Hence my choice to use colour. The digital camera is very complex with a vast number of options, and I missed the simplicity of a film camera.

Art Advertising

While looking through an art magazine, I noticed advertisements for contemporary art. I found the different ways of presenting contemporary art intersting. Most forms of 2D advertiseing utalize the medium of photography. Even though in Glenn Kaino we are presented with a close up image of his painting, I think it is important to remember that we are looking at a photograph of the painting.

I found this photo of the photo thought prevoking, because it elevates this specific proccess of photography to what would appear as high art.

However in the case of sculpture the photograph is an assential tool for display. As a result of photography the work is more accesible to the public. The Audience-even though unable to ihhabit the same space as the sculpture-can still appreciate the work.
