TomR posted:Think of it like the most complicated and technically challenging music you've ever heard performed as well as anyone can, just you don't like the song. That's how I feel about it anyway. I wouldn't say those photos or the photographer are anywhere near as good as a Chopin ballade, but I see where your coming from.

I dont think you are ever going to be able to fully seperate photography and explotation, at least photography in a documentary/journalistic form. The only thing you can do is to try and eleviate it as much as possible. Alot of the criticism aimed at Diane Arbus I dont really get, the people she photographed were marginal people, alot of them were freakish and most of them are strange and unusual. That might be an ignorant and harsh way to describe a set of people, and you could substitue the description but ultimately in the face of society and the norm thats what they were. It is an interesting discussion, and there is definitely a line that can be crossed.
