Outerbridge

Outerbridge is like Andy Warhol in the sense that they were not only artists, but salesmen. They made their art in ways that it was mass produced. Personally i do not like when art is mass produced for commercial value. The article seems to say that his art can be appreciated by different types of people, the ones who like the commercial value, and those who like the true artistry. The way we use the saturate function in Photoshop he had been doing in the darkroom, which makes me think that we take such advantage from these things that we find normal, were once incredibly difficult to master.
Looking at his color photos of women I can see why they were censored in the early 20th century. Also the color photos seem more poster like than they do real pieces of art worth a higher value. I do like his black and white photos because of the dramatic lighting he uses in them. To capture a photo and not lose any parts to shadows or over powering light is a hard and rewarding task that I believe he has mastered with his photo, Top Hat and Mufflers. Also to put this on a platinum print is very rewarding , because of the expense of the material would mean that he would have to get the print right before he could run out of money to buy that paper.
