Why are works well-known: Robert displays a great deal of realism in his photos. The way that he makes the reader feel the emotion of the person in the photo is mind-boggling. His pictures capture the authenticity of one's soul so much that it becomes surreal.
He uses a variety of techniques to capture photos. From high contrast bright lighting, to very dark shadows and emphasis, his actual work leaves nothing to the imagination except time.
The overall concept is surrealism vs. realism.
Important Techniques: High Contrast, Sharpening, and Noise
Goal/ Intention for creating image: To convey a certain attitude or story about the subject in the photo through setting and framing.
I love his intensely sharpened uncanny photography. His work is truly one-of-a-kind which is what I believe makes a great artist.
