ESSAY QUESTION for Exam #3:
Many photographers in the past few decades have used photography
to show us what would not normally be visible to the human eye. They
have manipulated photographic techniques to bring us closer to conceptual
truths as well as fictions.
Choose two photographers who have used some form of manipulation in
their work. Describe how they manipulate the photographic image or
process, and explain the reasons why they choose to do this.
Please include the names and dates of specific photographs in your discussion.
