Robert Franks America

Watching the short video about Robert Frank, i thought his photographs were very bleak but at the same time very artistic. I called it bleak because its just pictures of regular people doing regular things. I also call it artistic because the pictures were taken in a way that made you think about how america was and that it wasn’t this dream land but it was a regular place where people lived their lives in solitude not knowing the person around them. Each of his photos had a meaning behind it and the fact that he took his time to select 83 out of the many pictures he took made it very special and meaningful to his work. It showed how much he believed in his work and how talented he was a photographer.
