Analysis On Diane Arbus

There were many brave women who beleived ine the union cause. One of the most well know female spies was Elizebeth Van Lew. She lived in the South but had northern veiws. Elizabeth R. Varon a reporter at The New york times wrote “As she watched a secessionist procession snake through the streets of Richmond in the wake of Virginia’s vote to join the Confederacy, she knew the time for compromise had passed. “Such a sight!” Van Lew wrote. “The multitude, the mob, the whooping, the tin-pan music, and the fierceness of a surging, swelling revolution. This I witnessed. I thought of France and as the procession passed, I fell upon my knees under the angry heavens, clasped my hands and prayed, ‘Father forgive them, for they know not what they do.’”

Her work is gorgeous; I feel very inspired by her vision. I can see why her work was sought out and purchased. I love how she captured people and their emotions, and in a way that celebrates the “every day” people. She made the mundane, interesting.

This picture was a school-related photo taken roughly around the second semester of 5th grade at a field trip to Dockweiler Beach. I was participating in Kids Ocean Day, an annual trip the kids at my elementary school go to to help the environment by picking up trash. I am one of the people in the photo; the other two crouching down next to me are two of my elementary school friends, and the small girl in the left is a first-grader who photobombed the picture.

The image I choose is a photograph titled, Mulberry Street, which was photographed by photographer Sid Grossman (1913-1955). As part of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, “Photographs from the 1940s and 1950s” collection, this photograph was captured in 1948. Grossman photography represents more of an everyday life in America vs. tradition photography. When you first glance at this photograph it seems like the main focal point is of a young boy probably around thirteen to fifteen years old at the fair but as you stair at the photograph a bit longer you notice the boys face is actually blurry. The way Grossman took this picture does remind me of a few photographs my parents took of my siblings and me living in the moment not posing for the picture and then come to realize the picture is blurry. The meaning of this image can represent by us living in a fast-paced society because yet we still need time to enjoy the moments.

As a common Diane Arbus photograph, it is confrontational in the way the subjects

Through a formalist lens, Erika Gottlieb portrays Orwell’s use of symbols and allusions to the church as his attempt to satirize and criticize both totalitarianism and the church itself. As Gottlieb begins her examination of 1984, she questions whether or not “Orwell uses religion to make fun of totalitarianism, or . . . totalitarianism to make fun of religion” (Gottlieb). However, Gottlieb seems to come to a conclusion that Orwell’s goal was to mock both institutions. She first reveals Orwell’s satirical portrayal of totalitarianism through symbolism and interprets the eye of Big Brother as “a fundamental concept of mysticism being that the human Soul is always in the presence of God.

Having grown up Jewish I can tell you plenty about being stereotyped because I am almost everyday of my life. I get asked the same questions every day: What is that hat thing you guys wear? Do you go to Church? Do you celebrate Christmas? I go to a summer camp every year, that happens to be Jewish.

This is our sister Daena Rose, she is has a double major in Educational Arts (Secondary Education) and History/Geography. Daena also has a minor in TESL (Teaching English as a Second Language). In the chapter Daena Rose takes on the roles of New Member Educator and Historian. She will be spending her summer working a part time job as well as woking at an English Immersion day camp for francophone children, and hopefully getting some sleep at some point. Daena is a self-proclaimed stationary freak, and even hugged her Erin Condren planner for a few minutes when it first arrived. Daena chose this picture to share with everyone because “it makes me feel like i've come such a long way from teenager me and helps me remember to move forward”.

The photograph “Unknown #153” was taken by Cindy Sherman in 1954. The picture is of a Caucasian woman lying in the grass. She is not completely in the picture, because the parts of her body visible to the viewer is the area above the collarbone and her right shoulder. Her face, neck and clothes have handfuls of dirt on them. Her body is flat; she is faced up and her arms are down by her side. Her face is the center point of the photo yet; she is diagonally in the frame with her body placed in the bottom right corner of the picture. Her chest is diagonally shown not showing signs of her breast at all. The bare skin of her chest is barely visible because of how the woman is placed in the frame. Her hair is an odd silver color and looks sort of like a wig up close. Her hair also makes her look older but, the lack of wrinkle lines and softer features suggest she is a bit on the younger side. Her hair is short and stops at the bottom of her ears. The viewer can see half of her right ear but, the photo does not expose the opening. While on the other hand her left ear is completely covered by her hair. Her eyebrows are full and appear to have hints of the silver. Her eyes look dark from afar but up close, they appear to be blue. In her pupils a dot of sun in each eye is noticeable. She has a round shaped face and the stale expression makes her look as if she could be dead. She is looking towards the left of the frame. Her head is slightly tilted to the viewer’s left although her

Also draws narrative in the way she gets to know her subjects, she spends a lot of time with them as Adams (2001 pg 133-114) mentions that she was “Fascinated by portraits of the great sideshow performers, Arbus frequented the seedy neighborhoods, low-budget carnivals, and cheap rooming houses where freaks had come to rest. There, she befriended them with her camera and brought their pictures to the walls of galleries and art museums.

A famous YouTuber (who I've never heard of until recently) was placed under citizen's arrest by YouTube social justice warriors for impersonating a comedian.

First off, Annie Sullivan demonstrates a large amount of persistence and determination. there is an example of this trait on page 45, "You think I'm so easily gotten rid of?" No matter the cost Annie is determined to stick around and teach Helen the ways of a normal child, as long as the Keller's will allow her. Another example is located on page 56, "Then leave me alone with her. Now!" Annie is willing to risk her job and paycheck to be able to reach Helen's unhampered

My experience when listening to Diane telling her story was I felt touch by all she went through. When I listen to her she made me feel as though it was my experiencing her pain and joy. What she was saying was genuine and from the heart. I heard the sadness in her voice when Diane talked about her family struggle. The joy when she talked about how she made it. I felt her vulnerability was to open up her heart and share her

American photographers of the late 1950’s and 60’s reinvented the documentary tradition. Photographers like Diane Arbus, Garry Winogrand, and lee Friedlander looked at the world through the “astonish-me” viewpoint. Diane Nemerove, or better known as Diane Arbus, was an American Documentary Photographer known for her compelling, yet often disturbing portraits of people from the edges of society. An example is the 1962 image of The Boy with the Hand Grenade in Central Park. As a native New Yorker, Diane Arbus photographed the people of the city, but not just the everyday. Arbus sought out those at the edge of society. She depicts the daily life, but with an emphasis on the abnormality of the commonplace. When looking at the image of the boy in 1962, the child seems no different from other children; his facial expression communicating a frustration beyond the specific image. You see a boy with the strap of his shorts awkwardly hanging from his shoulder, with his arms tense and his hands clenched in frustration; a toy replica hand grenade in his

The speaker was Megan Amaya, PhD, CHES, AFAA, she is the Director of Health Promotion and Wellness and Assistant Professor in Practice in the College of Nursing at The Ohio State University. She is a certified health education specialist, personal trainer and group fitness instructor. One thing I would like her job is that focus on behavior, the aim of the job is health promotion, not only nutrition area but also exercise. I think this job is really cool, the reason why I choose to learn human nutrition is that try to improve the health condition of people surrounding me, this job really fit this aim. I don't think there is anything I would not like about this job. Moreover, one thing that really surprises me is that many companies require
