Responding to Images in Google Drive

31 Março 2020, 10:00 • Paula Alexandra Carvalho Alves Rodrigues Horta

We have all seen many hundreds of images on the current situation that is afflicting the world. Of the arsenal of images you have come across, can you select one that you think will become iconic? 

 Consider  (by going back to the chapters "Images, Power, and Politics", "The Portrait in Photography" "Documentary Photography") what gives an image mass appeal and lends it iconic status. What makes the image you have selected representative of the moment we are experiencing? What iconographic details would you highlight?

Post your images and reflections in the class' shared folder in Google Drive
