Interview: http://bombsite.com/issues/99/articles/2883
The reason that I have chosen Robert Polidori as the artist this week is because he has taken what I am trying to do to another level that I can only hope to reach. Polidori's images are "beautiful", they draw the viewer in to inspect the space that he has photographed.
"Polidori is unapologetic about the beauty of his photographs. 'I don't think a photograph should be worse than what you see, but better. Otherwise why even bother doing it. Just go and look. ' "

(Lauren, I am having problems with blogger. I had to take my new laptop to have a data transfer done from my old laptop and haven't gotten it back yet. I am hoping to get it back on Monday 9/13 sometime. I have put up what I could but I'm not used to a PC which is what I am using at the moment to get what I can posted. When I get my new laptop back I will finish the post.)
