The casual and smooth language engages the reader in a conversation, a good one, starting with an attention-grabbing question, then explaining what it is all about and soon concluding with a concise idea. But I think would reconsider this final conclusion. Were people really smiling and experiencing nostalgia? Or were they cringing a little bit, specially when confronted with images of strangers having sex or shooting heroin? Or maybe the answer is more of a mix of it all. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14317683604304088952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466314672723988836.post-46795686278029232912016-09-21T09:34:42.034-07:002016-09-21T09:34:42.034-07:00Reading this review, I feel like I’m having a pers...Reading this review, I feel like I’m having a personal conversation with you about this show that really impacted you. Which is really fitting, considering how intimate the work is in this Nan Goldin show. I’d like to hear more about the content of the photographs, since both content and form (in this case) work together to make delightfully impactful works. The senses of nostalgia voyeurism you’re talking about are very heavy in this show. Maybe you could expound on how the images could be somewhat upsetting and still comforting, as they leave you “happy knowing that you are not alone”.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15568267657644615579noreply@blogger.com
