今日看到朋友盐家良兄的fb轉載了 一篇文章「Why photographs matter」，文中有一段文字相當值得閱讀：unlike with much contemporary conceptual art, no one feels they need to have a photographic image explained or a PhD to understand it. There is no art form where the work speaks for itself more universally than in photography.
說來諷刺，就是因為攝影應該是最易理解的視覺藝術，就是因為影像本身無需PhD 學歷才能理解，因此就有些攪攝影藝術的PhD或還未有PhD的策劃人，一直努力用各種方法把攝影弄得不易明白，由影像的構成、作品的選題、展覽的題目、策展文字的遣詞用字，都要努力做到大家難以明白，這樣才顯得什他們夠藝術。
