From: J Category: Art Date: 26 March 2008 Time: 04:15 AM Review: To use Tilmans as your example of a bad photographer, post ideology, carelessly dogmatic, whatever, is a mistake. The value is his work and other exponents of the snapshottish picture of something that looks good/ catches their eye, is precisely that overconstructed ideological work is further from the way I look at the world. I see pictures by Tilmans that look like moments I experience, and that is good. It may be that his style becomes a cliche, what doesnt?, but nonetheless he and others add to the number of images in the world that touch a nerve, provoke a feeling of nostaliga, make me feel a feeling. (ps if you give your posts in response to posts NEW TITLES that will make them easier to follow)
