Brendon Lee Art 210 Reaction to Corrine May Botz Lecture The lecture presented by Corrine May Botz was very interesting. I enjoyed most of what she lectured about. My favorite part of the lecture was when she spoke of ghosts and the haunted houses. The stories that followed the pictures were very interesting and kind of sent chills up my spine.

Martha Rosler likewise stands for the considerate and gentle creative reaction from photographers. Lucy Soutter in her Documentary Dilemmas essay brings up Martha Rosler’s argument on documentary Photography and her critique of the social-documentary agenda, which Rosler considers to be intensely defective and severely faulty. (Soutter, 2013). The motive behind this statement appears to be Rosler’s belief in the need to help the victims of the documented pictures rather than achieving goals of
