Visual Art Currently Hanging: Erin Shafkind

Posted by on Wed, Jan 6, 2010 at 2:30 PM

From Erin Shafkind's blog, poorworm: not-quite-vertical, too bright, too dark, soft focus, ridiculous, perfect. It's called A Glimpse of the Acorn from her Antler series.

The selected piece left me skeptical but the blog made for an amusing stroll. Thank you.

I find this photo both shallow and pedantic.

If you can't see the blatantly racist themes in this photo you are ignorant and should really consider educating yourself on the history of race relations in the US.

Oh, you must be referring to that old stereotype about African Americans having Antlers.
