Scholarly Research Paper from the year 2011 in the subject Art -
Photography and Film, Old Dominion University (Humanities),
language: English, abstract: Garry Winogrand was one of the last
masters of so called modern photography. A photojournalist and art
photographer, using a Leica reflex camera loaded with a 28mm lens
and a TriX 400 iso film, he rose to fame for his street pictures
taken extensively across the United States, and across several

what was photographed. Or, how the camera saw the piece of time and
space is responsible for how the photograph looks. ....I like to
think of photographing as a two-way act of respect. Respect for the
medium, by letting it do what it does best, describe. And respect
for the subject, by describing as it is. A photograph must be
responsible to both." (Garry Winogrand, Austin Texas, 1974,

experiencing a shift in traditional ways of displaying and
producing photographs. On the one hand, photographs are now
