Referencing the picture above entitled “Wrong!” Can a ‘bad’ picture ever be ‘great’? – How important is context in photography? (context= why a picture was taken, when or where it was taken and what message you were trying to make)
A ‘bad’ picture can ever be ‘great’ because our work should not be judged and that why should we conform to conventional aspects of art or photograph. The picture Wrong by John Baldessari, for example, is an example because its message is that why should we conform to conventional aspects of art or photograph. Context in photography is extremely important; it can let other people who saw the photo know about the its information; why it was taken, where and when it was taken and the message the creator was trying to make. One example is the photo by John Baldessari titled “Wrong”; the message John was trying to make is why should we conform to conventional aspects of art or photograph, why does our work has to be judged? In summary, a ‘bad’ picture can ever be ‘great’ because our work should not be judged and that why should we conform to conventional aspects of art or photograph and context in photography is extremely important because it can let other people who saw the photo know about the its information; why it was taken, where and when it was taken and the message the creator was trying to make.
