The Most Unfluential images Tank Man. Author / date / place — Jeff Widener, 1989, Beijing, China. Tank Man (also known as the Unknown Protester or Unknown Rebel) is the nickname of an unidentified Chinese man who stood in front of a column of tanks leaving Tiananmen Square on June 5, 1989, the day after the Chinese military had suppressed the Tiananmen Square protests by force. As the lead tank maneuvered to pass by the man, he repeatedly shifted his position in order to obstruct the tank's attempted path around him. The incident was filmed and smuggled out to a worldwide audience. Internationally, it is considered one of the most iconic images of all time. #tankman #dreamer #ThMost Unfluentialimages #100photos #time (at Berlin, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDoFb5HAFWD/?igshid=1je1ulyf0ed1s

Behind Closed Doors

Donna ­Ferrato

Donna Ferrato - Living With The Enemy:

There was nothing particularly special about Garth and Lisa or the violence that happened in the bathroom of their suburban New Jersey home one night in 1982. Enraged by a perceived slight, Garth beat his wife while she cowered in a corner. Such acts of intimate-­partner violence are not uncommon, but they usually happen in private. This time another person was in the room, photographer Donna ­Ferrato.

Ferrato, who had come to know the couple through a photo project on wealthy swingers, knew that simply bearing witness wasn’t enough. Her shutter clicked again and again. Ferrato approached magazine editors to publish the images, but all refused. So Ferrato did, in her 1991 book Living With the Enemy. The landmark volume chronicled domestic-­violence episodes and their aftermaths, including those of the pseudonymous Garth and Lisa. Their real names are Elisabeth and Bengt; his identity was revealed for the first time as part of this project. Ferrato captured incidents and victims while living inside women’s shelters and shadowing police. Her work helped bring violence against women out of the shadows and forced policymakers to confront the issue. In 1994, Congress passed the Violence Against Women Act, increasing penalties against offenders and helping train police to treat it as a serious crime. Thanks to Ferrato, a private tragedy became a public cause.

*** • I started my #urbanemeralds project back in January, and after several hundred captures, I've reached #100photos. With 900 more to go, I will be structuring each set of 100 to create a more cohesive body of work. I feel this is a great time to take a break from posting more of this series while I solidify the project's structure and collect more images. This is especially good timing with the #pancakesandbooze #artshow at #elcorazon coming up. • From each of these #onehundredphotos I created a photographic mandala. They are not all great, in fact most are terrible, but they will serve a greater cause, to be revealed at a later date. However, there are a few that stand out, 20 of them to be specific, and of these 20 I will be printing out 6 of them that will be available at the #pancakesandboozeseattle art show. These prints will be #oneofakindpieces that will become #livingart. • I will also have select #printsavailable at the #pancakesandboozeartshow from my entire catalog. Photographs of #yosemitenationalpark, #deathvalley, #joshuatreenationalpark, #pnwparks, #seattlewashington, #cinqueterreitaly, #florenceitaly, #milanitaly, #nicefrance, along with photographic designs will all be available, ranging from $5-25 for simple prints. I will also have ready to hang artwork for sale. • #100thphoto #seattleartpost #artshowseattle #seattleartshow #pnwart #pnwartshow #emeraldcity #emeraldnature #pnwphotography #1000photos (at Seattle, Washington)
