[LargeFormat] Photography as art?

[rstein]

Dear Andrew,

     I will be delighted to assist you with your questions. Remember that my
own answers to university exam questions earned me valuable extra exams and
more study time. None of those boring old vacations for me....

    Is it art? 'Course it's art. Every damned thing is art these days.
Remember the chap who exhibited a Parisian urinal at the turn of last
century and labelled it art? Making art is a piece of piss.....

    Is it REALLY art? Well, remember art is what don't sell and fine art is
what don't sell in a pink fit. Beleive me I can make fine art....

    Why do I photograph? To show beauty of form and tone in unclothed women.
Also clothed women. We are an equal opportunity studio here.

    What am I trying to say? Nothing other than look how beautiful or sexy
or strange something is. Admire the person there in the image. Buy a print.
Buy several prints.

    Uncle Dick
