- Visual Arts
In this second episode, I take a look at 'The Americans' and Robert Frank a photographer who travelled across America for two years and took 28000 images ' He sucked a sad poem out of America' The book that followed was a critique of American society - Images of empty diners, glitz and dismay - A tragic vision of The American Dream. Frank passed away this year and I felt it was important to recognise the impact his work had on photography - A photographer who definitely did not care for the rules.
