I never wanted to make a post about Diane Arbus. Publishing her images is like showing Picasso´s paintings in those endlessly repeated exhibitions everybody loves to go, even those who are punished with blindness. Still, here are some images by her for you and me to see. I just feel like it.
A successful photograph doesn´t tell the truth. Neither does it tell us about reality. A successful photograph is about the ideas or feelings the photographer connects with reality.
Diane Arbus: “Nothing is ever the same as they said it was.”
