Randy,
I didn't say that photograph didn't
have a cultural effect before the digital era. What I am saying is that
curators are trying to redefine what a photograph is because of how the culture
is now using photos with 360,000 million pictures being uploaded to
Facebook ever day.
From the very beginning of
photography painters could no longer strive for straight representative art but
needed impressionism et al to claim that painting was on the cutting edge of
art. There been a cultural effect by photography since Mathew Brady took
pictures in the Civil War and preserved the event for succeeding
generations.
