During the course of this class, I have found pleasure in learning about the art that I walk by very frequently. I went to go view the Yates Gallery's exhibit on Martin Benjamin who is not like many other artists we have discussed in class but that I found to take interesting photographs of life. Like many artists today, Benjamin also uses tools as a way of crafting or capturing art work through the use of photography. Benjamin's photographs have appeared in new papers and exhibits all throughout the US and Europe. The photo on the left is of a selection from the Atomic Age collection that was also showcased in an exhibit in Atlanta, GA. Other works of his that displayed moments in life or life's simplicity are through his works Beijing, China, The Great Hall, Ellis Island, and Atlantic Ocean.
