Diane Arbus

Diane Arbus' work is interesting but it is specific to it's time. Today there are so many photographers that no matter how compelling the subject matter, there would be much criticism because of lack of composition. Photography now seems to be very competitive and the same subjects would likely have been shot by others. I order to get the kind of recognition she had then, these days she would have had to have printed them on sheets of human skin or something.
