Re: First define "post-modern" photography, dammit
(hmmm...office hours must be boring--no students beating down my door) Lux references a lot of art history, has a painting background, manufactures and digitally alters her backgrounds and children, children are often other-worldly looking, she chooses her clothes carefully, they are printed large color works, sells for quite a bunch of moolah....but it is interesting you refer to her as a Precious Moments person because she does morph their faces and hands and such a bit to make them look like little aliens. In fact, people are trying to get her to "fess up" about her specific technique and she is not forthcoming.
