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.
