Alfred Eisenstaedt VS. Scout Tufankjian.


love this expressive photo of young Obama fans by photojournalist Scout Tufankjian (2008)... reminds me of Alfred Eisenstaedt's photograph titled The Parisians (1963) of kids watching a puppet show (both images involve talking heads.)

Jowhara AlSaud. Artist. NY/Saudi Arabia.










Jowhara etches drawings into photo film and prints them in a darkroom..."I'm trying to point out how malleable it (photography) is as a medium, even before digital manipulation became so advanced and accessible (...) What also interests me is that the information omitted (faces, skin) creates an image of its own, as do the censors to our cultural landscape."
