Artists and Photographers researched further for my MA Project Proposal
March 11, 2010
At the current time i am researching a number of photographers, painters and video makers who document groups/individual people using a space or particular environment.
The images below do show interesting connections between all the works and the different artists that have created them, even though they use different media – from painting to sculptures, film to print they all somehow share a connection of social documentation.
If you have any further suggestions of any other artists or photographers that relate to my area that i haven’t mentioned, please comment or email me. Many thanks.
Following descriptions of each of the pieces will appear at a later date.
