Techniques of Arbus's work

After visiting the Tate gallery on Monday I realised that many different photographers see things and situations in different ways and they show that through there photographs. Diane Arbus started photography after she got married to her childhood sweetheart Allan Arbus who was also a photographer for the United States Army and then he started a photographic advertising business in Manhatten with Diane. Many people questioned her work even after she died, Arbus didn't want to be remembered as " the photographer of freaks" which is what she is most known for and I think that is what made her different because she wasn't afraid to take photographs of dwarfs, giants,transvestites, nudists and circus performers, all people that no one else at that time would think to take pictures of.
Diane and her husband contributed to the fashion world even though neither of them like the fashion world, Arbus also taught a photography course at the Parsons school of design and the cooper union in New York city. Her first major exhibition was at the Museum of modern Art in 1967 show called " New Documents". Her magazine assignments decreased as her fame as an artist increased, the day that Diane Arbus died was the day that a great talent was lost, Arbus took her own life on 26th July 1971 partly because she exsperienced depressive moods and her ex husband once said that she had 'violent changes of mood.' Many people have tried to copy her work but none have succeeded and I think that she has left a great example of how different people's styles can be and how the photographer can interpret a moment with one simple shot.
