Presentations 2 :Gender, Gaze, Otherness

To start with, on this week such topics as 'otherness' and 'cultural imaginaries&landscape photography' were discussed. Indeed, both these themes are highly crucial in terms of tendencies of today's world. Like, the issue of otherness is important to consider and represent since there are people, who feel that they are like freaks and hardly can be a part of community. As a matter of fact, society must care about each member (not push individuals off if they have special peculiarities). There are great number of photographers, who would like to touch the problem. I found really inspirational images that were produced by Diana Arbus since social meaning of her digital-captures to depict marginalized people as normal. And i think if there are more artists who want to portray individuals, who are different like they are ordinary, the problem will being gradually solved.
