FotoFilmic Article Review

Julia Nazarova

While viewing this website it was organized in multiple fields. The first subject covered images made through photography. The background of the website is white which allows you to focus on the images. All the images are uniform in size keeping the website visually appealing. FotoFilmic is simplistic clean and highly organized.

Julia Nazarova has a short bio about herself explaining that she is not a professional photographer and does her craft for self expression. Her images are unique and makes viewers wonder what is the full story behind this image. The image above shows a young girl with a scared expression on her face. Is this the artist reliving an emotion through the child? Also the shadow almost makes the figure disappear and makes viewers wonder about background information. While viewing her personally website there were several images that  would make a viewer work for more information.

Michael Ernest Sweet  "Me and Two of Them"

The over all feel of the website was nicely organized. The images that were posted have a well rounded theme in all of the blogs. The image above was interested in the fact that the photographer captured images of non tradition models. He reminds me a Joan Semmel she paints images of herself nude and she is an older lady. She intentionally wanted to capture the grace of the aging process. Another element that capture my attention in his picture is the way he included himself in the image. His presence is there without his actual image showing. I appreciate the various values all the shadows create a visual pleasing element.

The Alphabet in Color


Aperture Magazine Article Review

Denise Wolff on Aperture's Instagram Silent Auction

Christopher Anderson, Untitled, 2012


Denise Wolff posted this particular article about Aperture's Instagram Event. Over all the website is nicely organized and a brief summary is included at the bottom of each picture to give viewers an idea of the content for the blog. This article was informative and kept o the point.

Christopher Anderson captured the image above, he is one of one hundred people that entered the Aperture's Instagram Silent Auction. The writer plans to bid on this photograph herself. The image has fascinating shadows and the color scheme is interesting the way the artist decided to use hints of color and gives an over all black and white effect.

Revised Double Shots

 


Glasstire Article Review

A Conversation with Bill Viola 10-03-13

Peter Lucus wrote this blog about Bill Viola and his video images. I was no particularly fond of the Glasstire website as a whole. Due to the subjects they post and the visual content. The site seems to focus more on pictures of artwork instead of the picture that was captured being it's on artwork.

The image above is called The Dreamers. It is a picture taken of a video installation. During Bill Viola's interview Peter Lucus ask him about how he works with slow motion, depicts dreams in his artwork, and how he using ideas of death in his pieces. I think the image above was beautifully captured since it is a video in motion.

Ron Anderson: River of Big Canoes

August, 20 2013

Ron Anderson made a blog about the Missouri River. There were lots of images to view on his blog which keep the blog visually interesting.  It was easy to navigate and the captions were descriptive and  kept short, but straight to the point. Anderson's post are of photographs that capture the beauty of the Missouri River.

The reason I find this blog so interesting is, because he participates in a fundraiser to clean and preserve the Missouri River.  You can tell he is passionate about his work and he cares about the subjects he photographs.The image above particularly caught my interest in the fact that it's a beautiful picture that captured nature at a perfect time of day and just in the background you can tell that a steam boat was passing through and this detail added visual interest.
