AMERICAN SCHOOL ART: Aaron Siskind's Canvas is Film
http://americanschoolart.blogspot.com/2011/01/aaron-siskinds-canvas-is-film.html
Aaron Siskind's Canvas is Film. Many of the themes in photography come from expressing the world as we actually see it. But to the abstract expressionist, the world may be represented in emotion, feeling, and action. Saw photography as another device in the abstract expressionist’s toolbox. He tended to use the film as a canvas and light as his brushes. He preached the flatness of the medium, striving to capture true emotion from the essence of the objects he photographed. Fernando Castro-Wu 10th said.

http://americanschoolart.blogspot.com/2008/09/august-20-2008-while-creating.html

By Michael Kamber and Tim Arango cover some of the problems photographers have had publishing their work on the Iraq war. The images of Zoriah Miller. But where does censorship stop? I agree wi...

AMERICAN SCHOOL ART: The Format of Penn
http://americanschoolart.blogspot.com/2010/10/format-of-penn.html
The Format of Penn. When Irving Penn said "Photographing a cake can be art." did he mean simplicity is beauty? Looking at his work we can see how he used simple compositions to create interest within the frame. He loved the edges of the format. The negative spaces were planned precisely to bring our our eyes back to the important areas of the image. The negative spaces are interesting without upstaging the main subject. This is balance and emphasis in action. Paola M. 10th (block D) said. Ever artist or ...

http://americanschoolart.blogspot.com/2011/01/it-is-all-in-seeing.html
It is All in the Seeing. The idea that those things around us are the most beautiful can only be fulfilled through a exhaustive search for design in the ways that we live.
