remarkable sense of space and scale, figures exactly big enough to still be figures. it feels like they couldn't be a pixel smaller and still exist.

What is art? Art is two impossibly different things facing each other across an eternity and becoming one.

great texture with the verticals on the window contrasting with the diagonals of the fan motion. that is great motion blur by the way. I've only ever seen blur like that on butterflies.

The sun is the artist of this photo, deciding what to show and what not to show, relating two beings who probably are not related. That is art, to cover and uncover, to expose and hide. Someone could write an essay about what the man means and what the ox means, and why he's walking out of frame while the ox is stolid, but that essay doesn't make it art. The art is what makes someone want to write the essay, and it makes ten people write ten different essays.

Rooftops

photography is to painting as nonfiction is to fiction. There might still be some metaphorical or symbolic weight to that man on the roof aping superman, but there is also the real man and whatever quotidian or personal reason he had to wear that shirt... and it haunts the symbolism. The same can be said about the composition, which is so visually appealing and strong, the flat surfaces spiraling into each other... cut by two figures and a ladder... but this composition is also haunted by the realities of these two people and who they might really be and what they might really be feeling. Art is in this tension between ideal beauty and concrete concerns... the sacred and the profane.

Why is this art? Well, it's art in a very photographic way. It disorients us, takes some context away so foreground and background create one pattern. The architectural space and purpose disappear, and that vase floats in the same aether as the tree. Everything is just... lines.
