Truth and Lies in Photography College Project (Spank Moons) Research and own work

JERUSALEM - Twee rechtse kranten in Israël hebben twee vrouwen op een foto van het nieuwe kabinet van Israël weggesneden en twee mannen ervoor in de plaats gezet.

In de religieuze krant Yated Ne'eman zijn de vrouwelijke leden van de nieuwe regering, Limor Livnat and Sofa Landver, vervangen door de silhouetten van twee mannelijke ministers.

In de krant The Maariv werden Livnat and Landver gewoon zwart gemaakt.

De ultra-orthodoxe kranten weigeren foto's van vrouwen te publiceren.

Onderzoek naar deze zeer specifieke begrippen. Hun impact. Bestaan ze eigenlijk wel binnen de context van de fotografie? De opdracht is een sleutel naar autonoom werk.

Looking at truth and lies in photography and their impact on the medium. Do they actually exist within the context of photography?

I think I'm going to take a cue from Stalin in this project, and use his photo manipulation in his propaganda as a starting point for the fictionalisation of my family photos.

For this project, I propose to censor out people/things/happenings from my life that I would have attached negative connotations to. A childhood bully, an embarrassing moment in the school play, etc. I'll airbrush my life, so to speak.

here are some examples of Stalinist photo editing (from this wiki page):
