It all depends on the context that it's put in. I would doubt that any serious paedophile would be satisfied with having a photograph that is meant to be an artistic statement as satisfying pornographic material, but even that is somehow disputable. I didn't know about the fact that Goldin was friends with the parents of the girls, so that's a plus for her and a minus for me, but the question still remains why somebody's work relies heavily on its own contextualization, wich in itself undermines the very spirit of making an artistic statement. Unless, of course, Goldin would explain that her pictures aren't to be taken seriously, in which case it's like:''Ok, whatever''.
