Some suggestions for Personal Investigation (Look for your name in Green)

Edward Weston: This is a good photographer for George and possibly Rosie. Here is a blog entry about Weston. 

Weston has his own website. Weston's photography can easily be linked to that of Ansel Adams as well as Alfred Steiglitz's Modernist photography.

Dziga Vertov's Man with A Video Camera is a good example of using film to document life as photography does. You can find an extract from Photography: A Cultural History here. Ms Taylor also has a copy of the film and commentary. This would be useful for Hector.  


Fatima, have a look at the photography in this powerpoint Interwar Photography, below. There are several example of photographs of buildings and structures.  Slides 77-85 may be useful for Leo's look at expressions with more on Walker Evans, Dorothea Lange and Robert Frank.
