Susan Sontag: “Photographs really are experience captured, and the camera is the ideal arm of consciousness in its acquisitive mood.”
“To photograph is to appropriate the thing photographed.”
John Berger: “One may remember or forget these messages but briefly one takes them in, and for a moment they stimulate the imagination by way of either memory or expectation.”
“Publicity begins by working on the natural appetite for pleasure. But it cannot offer the real object of pleasure and there is no convincing substitute for pleasure in that pleasure’s own terms.” (Consumer becomes aware of ones lack of a pleasure with its publicity)
