    @andre123 With both Atget and the Bechers, it’s interesting that the art is at least as much in the body of work as a whole as it is any of the individual pieces.

      @mattblaze@federate.social absolutely, they began taking pictures maybe for personal pleasure, but they ended up creating an impressive work (of art) ! Do you think we could say the same for Vivian Mayer’s work?

          @mattblaze@federate.social oh yes, love his work, he surely had sense of humour and artistic abilities (sorry for my English). While mayer’s work is a lot more intimate to my eyes, like discovering her soul, wondering in the streets, film roll after film roll.
