David Lynch by Jean Baptiste Mondino

“I love to translate ideas. If you are true to the ideas that you love and never walk away from any element until it’s correct, then there’s a chance others will feel it’s correct and go into that world and have an experience. Hopefully a good experience.”

100 photographs you didn’t know were great #9: Shock

David Waterston — Tue, 26 Sep 2006 22:32:58 +0000

“Shock” (from the “End Times” series) by Jill Greenberg

Jill Greenberg: The Manipulator (manipulator.com)
On the topic “End Times” (paulkopeikingallery.com)
“The ‘trick’ is suddenly too good: Mrs. Greenberg’s talent with her medium may have finally crossed the line of what we know and what we believe.”
Cry Babies (popphoto.com)
“Jill Greenberg answers the critics who claim she abuses toddlers in the name of art.”
Podcast interview with Jill Greenberg (popphoto.com)

Jill Greenberg is a Sick Woman Who Should Be Arrested and Charged With Child Abuse (thomashawk.com)
Everyman has his say.
The Case Against Jill Greenberg’s “End Times” (thinkingpictures.blogspot.com)
Finally, a detailed and coherent argument! Misses the point completely, of course, but at least he tried.
“Could it be that Jill’s subject is “taboo” – or, to use a less scintillating term, “disgusting” – because we are aware of the real suffering children around the world experience, and to have it recreated snow-globe style reflects poor aesthetic and moral taste?”
