Francesca Woodman .
Su obra consiste en retratos de mujeres en blanco y negro, siendo ella misma la modelo en muchas ocasiones. El cuerpo es uno de los temas centrales de su fotografía; las figuras humanas aparecen borrosas, perdidas en la sombra, parecen formar parte de las salas invadidas por el deterioro.
Para Francesca Woodman el medio preferido para sus imágenes era el libro: sus fotos pasaban desapercibidas en galerías, sobre todo si tenían que competir con las imágenes de moda, aumentadas a tamaños descomunales. Diseñó libros para recoger sus fotografías, pero sólo se publicó uno de ellos: Algunas geometrías interiores desordenadas, en 1981.
Durante su estancia en Roma, las fotografías en las que el fondo muestra paredes deterioradas, enfatizando la calidad geométrica del origen arquitectónico clásico, cuyo estado es ruinoso. Estos escenarios recuerdan ambientes en los que le gustaba ubicar su trabajo en Rhode Island, donde buscaba viejas mansiones victorianas o fábricas abandonadas que le pudieran ofrecer el contexto apropiado para lo que quería expresar. En este periodo, sus fotografías muestran su influencia de los pintores clásicos italianos. Por ejemplo en su serie Calendario Pez -6 días, compone un aspecto general de naturalezas muertas junto con desnudos parciales.

Sally Mann by Sabrina Smith
Sally Mann is a controversial American photographer born in 1951 who lives isolated on a family farm in Virginia. She was inspired to photography by her father who gave her her first camera at age 17. Mann is known for her black and white photos of her children, often depicting them acting in mature ways or with serious facial expressions. Her work has been considered disturbing or even child pornography by some, but Mann says she is simply capturing motherly affection in a different style.
Surrealism
Surrealism sought to free the imagination and tap into the unconscious mind. It featured bizarre, dreamlike subject matter and was influenced by Freudian psychoanalysis. Two main types of Surrealists existed: those who created art automatically to depict the subconscious, and those like Dali and Magritte who used everyday objects placed in impossible contexts. Key figures like Dali, Magritte, and Miro used surrealism to comment on the human condition and realities beyond the obvious.
Surrealism ppt
Originally a literary movement, Surrealism explored dreams, the unconscious mind, and the intersection of reality and imagination. Inspired by World War I destruction and Sigmund Freud's theories of the mind, early Surrealist artists like Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte, and Joan Miro created works featuring illogical juxtapositions and impossible realities to represent inner psychic processes. Their surreal paintings, filled with dreamlike and disturbing images, became popular in France and other European countries in the 1920s.
Who's afraid of Sally Mann? (The look underneath)
Sally Mann is an American photographer known for her intimate photographs of her family and the rural American South. She grew up in rural Virginia and was given her first camera at age 17. Her most famous work, Immediate Family, published in 1992, featured graphic photographs of her three children and brought her widespread attention. Other notable works include What Remains, Deep South, and Proud Flesh, a series exploring aging and love between Mann and her husband who has muscular dystrophy. Mann's photographs often focus on themes of time, memory, loss and love through intimate portraits of her subjects.
