Thinking vs. feeling. Judging ...Looking vs. seeing. Thinking vs. feeling. Judging vs. accepting.<br /><br />It is so easy to do the former(s) and not the latter(s) when evaluating work that is new, and different, perhaps, than what we expected.<br /><br />Robert Storr said, "An artist is measured, in the first instance, by the difficulty of the problem [he] chooses to confront."<br /><br />There is so much more to this new work by Keith Carter than initially meets the eye; more, certainly, than the latest "gimmick." Thank you, John, for leading us so assuredly to its greater depths.<br /><br />Keith Carter's evolution as an artist has been and continues to be an inspiration. His freedom of expression, his eager willingness to expand his vision beyond the bounds of traditional photography, all the while remaining rooted in it, is a vivid indicator of what the art of photography can encompass and reveal.David Simontonhttp://www.davidsimonton.comnoreply@blogger.com
