Bill Brandt - Research

This is a photograph by Bill Brandt. Bill Brandt took photos of shape, commonly of the female form, as seen in the photograph. These sort of images can cause controversy, as some would consider them sexual objectification, however, some would consider them art. Personally, I thin that there is no right or wrong answer to this; it is entirely up to the viewer of the art. Personally, I do not find this image to be sexual objectification as it is simply a picture of a woman's legs, and I don't  see objectification implied. I think that it is partly due to my, in my opinion, that this image was not intended to be sexually natured; I feel that the use of female form was not a choice made so that the image was sexually appealing, but because of how it presents shape. Personally I feel that this image creates a sense of discomfort, partly due to the lighting and tones presented.
