The Curator Company blog

Thanks for the nice feedback

Ever since August last year when I started the Curator Company and launched our first product, the photocurator, I have had some great feedback from people I have met or customers who have bought them – either at markets, retail or online.

I haven’t mentioned them in the past but with the goodwill surrounding Christmas I really I can’t let the love go by without saying thanks! So here goes..

The Art of the Snapshot

I just came across an interesting article about the art of snapshot photography. Written by Craig Garrett and originally published in Flash Art No. 233 (Nov/Dec 2003) called: COERCED CONFESSIONS: Snapshot photography’s subjective objectivity

This photographic genre was very fashionable during the nineties and early 00′s with practitioners such as Wolfgang Tillmans and Leeta Harding being a couple of my favourites.

I remember back when this style first appeared during that period of ‘Heroin Chic’ and ‘Dirty Realism’ back when I was at art school. At the time I was a little dismissive of the genre, but now as my interest in the snapshot genre has grown and digital technology has gone on to change photography – my interest in the photo diarists and the role I believe this look has for the future has also begun to develop.
