steve_lowther Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 There's no doubt about it; photographs communicate universally. However, it is no replacement for language. Not all concepts, emotions, or other important-to-communicate things can be expressed visually. Say, there is an old photograph of a German soldier wearing skulls and a swaztika. The torrent of significance can not be explained by the image alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muszkiet damian Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 <br><i><center>Art is art - I'll be a lil philosopho here - and every artist creat art for him-self in some way.</center></i></br> <br>I think - not exacly...we have to decide in which way we are asking such question. We're seeking' for photography as photography it-self i.e. smiling child is smiling child? Or some abstraction, or documentary shots that let say are connected with religion and politics - some shots can be just taken in many different ways, we can understand em particularly.</br> <br>All I want to say is: I see on that picture green duck. For Christ sake for what sbd made green duck. After artists comments - if there are any - I can better get to know his point of view, his art he's making. But I don't think so that photography can be easly named same as Esperanto - one, fine, great, multi-inter-national laguage.</br> <br></br> <br>Just my thoughts...</br> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
