Lately I am thinking about online criticism, online critics.

“Contemporary Portraiture” – for the most part a derogatory phrase as it alludes to a stagnant and dying aesthetic… vs a time period [link]

@americansuburbx “contemporary portraiture” alludes to a changed perception of what photographic portraiture can do – no more, no less [link]

@jmcolberg – I understand but disagree. I see it as an unfortunate “aesthetic” that wraps itself like a blanket around the intent of many. [link]

@americansuburbx I don’t understand what your problem is really. “Intent” is something you cannot know if you only have a photo. [link]

@americansuburbx Also, you cannot ignore what we know now about photography – its loss of being a real document. [link]
