their influence in history. It is for my history class. It is from the 1940's to today. I'm still thinking on who I should do it on. Any tips on photographers, especially in the underground. I'm looking at you bunbury.

edward weston

why?

BECAUSE I SAID SO.

SynthethicalY · 03.13.2007, 06:16 PM

Cool, I have to narrow it down to six photographers. Two for the first(1945-1960), another two for the second(1960-1980), and two more for the last part(1980-).

I would have suggested whoever made the movie "The Battle of the Somme" but I don't think it would work because it is a movie, and it is before 1940.

SynthethicalY · 03.13.2007, 06:19 PM

Yeah, I am doing photographers, and ther influence. The paper is going to be 7-8 pages long.

!@#$%! · 03.13.2007, 08:47 PM

hm those look good.

puff will require 5 more names however.

!@#$%! · 03.13.2007, 10:55 PM

yes BUTT:

it's a HISTORY class & he needs old peeple. i think diane arbus is just + necessary when we talk of "influence" on contemporary culture. most of the photographers (all?) youve posted OWE her. si?

Wait you don't believe that crap do you? Photography is fucking art, I tell you.

soniknirve · 03.14.2007, 02:02 AM

Charles Peterson for his rock photography
and
Estevan Oriol for this

...but seriously he's done some good work documenting west coast street culture.

demonrail666 · 03.14.2007, 09:40 AM

I'd say Nan Goldin; you can relate it to broader cultural stuff you might be into.
