Vivid Exhibitions

So far visited vivid exhibitions have been reasonably impressive.

Parade: manufacturing selves in photography
Of all exhibitions this one was less than impressive. many of the photographs seemed to be lacking in the technical department, although these photographs are based on contemporary ideas i think that the 'rules' so-to-speak of photography need to be at least considered. Many of them were very creative and made for reasonable artworks. The line of the transexual male was quite enticing, capturing emotion in a misunderstood walk of life.

Sites of Convergence: Series #3 by Jo Anne Duggan
These photographs of italian interior work pictured beautiful colours and truely captured the atmosphere of these buildings. I feel they would come across much stronger with mounting :)

Degree South: Documentary
Of all exhibitions so far i was most impressed by this one. The documentation of so many struggles in life were moving and were photographed in a pleasing manner, it makes the people watching want to learn more as they are faced with issues many dont know exist.
