Annie Leibovitz Shoots Sears with Kardashians
Is it just me, or is there something dreadfully bizzare just off with this whole thingie?
The Gothamist thinks so.
So seriously, am I off my rocker being sort of suspended in disbelief?
Here’s the behind the scenes video from Elle.com, which was even weirder…
Why don’t u bring her on Creative Live? Anne L. that is.. ?
Yes, please bring Annie Leibovitz onto CLive!
Wow, much more tacky is this post. Shame on you, who are you to judge?
The fact that she is shooting for Sears… kinda surprises me, but the fact that she’s shooting the Kardashian’s eases the feeling. Underwear, not surprising at all. EVERY photographer I know takes on jobs that are slightly under par – it’s quick cash, and it keeps you busy.
What is VERY surprising to me is the behind the scenes video. Why would she release it? Maybe she had no control, but if she did, why would she do this? This could reduce overall value of the photographer, showing the public that you do these. I do smaller jobs, but request that my name not be associated with the piece.
I’ve been doing a lot of research on fine art lately. one thing I recently came across was the pros and cons of donating your work to a charitable auction. lots of both; but, one of the cons was that it can sell far below it’s market/street value. So you have a piece that just sold in an auction for 400, and you have a piece from the same edition in a gallery for 1200, a collector may not purchase it see that the same piece just sold for 400, reducing it’s value. This is the way I see this BTS video for Annie L.
Wow did you just honestly type what you typed.. Do you know what charity work means? It’s to help the less fortunate.
Personally i would feel fine paying more for a piece i bought at an arts dealer, knowing that the artist also donates his work to charities. Actually … i would prefer that.
but then again. You probably have never given a cent to charity, so you have no idea about it. And only see the dollar signs.
Sad. 🙁
You guys are a bit pathetic ( sorry to use such a strong word but..) Who’s to say that the lower class ( yes we do exist outside of your realm) can not have quality work done for us. I praise them for what they have done. It’s time to change your values and bring yourselves off of your high horses.
You took the words right out of my mouth, MarkSam. Too many arrogant asshats making comments about this shoot and work and yet THEY will NEVER produce anything half as nice as Ann’s work.
Ha Ha Ha. I didn’t even know Sears sold stuff like that. I thought they sold appliances….and lawn mowers. Maybe Kim needs to learn how to use a leaf blower for the next shoot.
