Early on in Edward's writing he mentions that people from centuries ago believed art is supposed to exist through mental fruition or mental pleasure and more thought out. Documentary has little prupose but to document the subject. Photographic art has a real purpose and is well-thought out prior to the actual picture taking. Many terms related to photographic art is established from actual art terms. One thing I found interesting about Edward's writing was when he told about how a large amount of everyday information comes from photos.Also, objectivity is supposedly the self-evident part of a science as well as other specialist's forms of observation. This truly describes the essence of photography. I found this reading interesting, it mixed two of my favorite subjects art/photography and history.
I feel both readings pertained to the project by educating me on the importance of different views in photography. The use of symmetry is to calm and asymmetry is to attract a viewer’s attention, as well as the importance of the preconception of ideas and allowing your voice to be heard.
