  • Portraiture and the Human Subject Print Viewing
    1 Natalie Krick, My Head on Mom's Shoulder, from the "Natural Deceptions" series, 2014 PORTRAITURE AND THE HUMAN SUBJECT PRINT VIEWING This print viewing introduces students to a range of photographs with a focus on portraiture where visual information such as setting, clothing, body language, and facial expression speak to the identity of the subject. Choices made by the photographer such as use of vantage point, lighting, framing, timing and composition also impact the viewer’s perception of the subject. The 2018–2019 exhibition season is generously sponsored by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, the Illinois Arts Council Agency, the City of Chicago's Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events (DCASE), and the Efroymson Family Fund. 22 JULIA MARGARET CAMERON British, 1815–1879 Eleanor, 1948 Julia Margaret Cameron's subjects were almost always family 1984:10 members or friends from a social circle of prominent cultural figures. Sir John Frederick William Herschel was a famous Victorian astronomer whose contributions to photography include the invention of the cyanotype "blue-print," inventing photographic fixers, and even coining the term “photography” in 1839. Cameron was a lifetime friend of Herschel, whom she met in South Africa while visiting the Cape of Good Hope in 1835 and later photographed on multiple occasions. While Cameron rigorously sought to maintain the distinction between art photography and "professional" photography (she proudly saw herself as part of the former), she was not unconcerned with the market for her work. That she obtained a copyright for "Herschel" (on April 9, 1867) suggests that she thought the image was especially marketable.

  • Photography and Communication: a Study of Interrelationship
    International Journal of English Learning and Teaching Skills; Vol. 1, No. 3; ISSN : 2639-7412 (Print) ISSN : 2638-5546 (Online) PHOTOGRAPHY AND COMMUNICATION: A STUDY OF INTERRELATIONSHIP Debashish Ghosh Scientific Officer, Department of Electrical Engineering, Aruni Maji, Debapriya Palai B.Tech,Forth year, Department of Electrical Engineering, Niloy Chakravorty B.Tech,Second year, Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering, Institute of Engineering & Management, Kolkata Abstract: Photography has arguably become one of the most potent instruments of communication for a contemporary artist. Its versatility, suggested truthfulness and the way in which artists distort or interpret ''reality'' has been a part of photography since the advent of the daguerreotype in 1839. Taking photographs today are no longer primarily an act of memory intended to safeguard a family's pictorial heritage, but is increasingly becoming a tool for an individual's identity formation and communication. Digital cameras, camera-phones, photo-blogs and other multipurpose devices are used to promote the use of images as the preferred idiom of a new generation of users. The aim of this article is to explore how photography has developed through time in itself and at the same time went on reshaping ideas of communication. Photography has touched and influenced almost all the major aspects of communication; the conclusion calls for a broader consideration of the links between the history of photography and media. Keywords: Photography, Media, Communication, Culture, Art history. Introduction: “The first thing to observe about the world of the 1780s is that it was at once much smaller and much larger than ours. It was smaller geographically …Yet if the world was in many respects smaller, the sheer difficulty or uncertainty of communications made it in practice much vaster than it is today.” This is how eminent Marxist historian Eric Hobsbawm starts the first pages of his seminal work on world history in four volumes.
