Instructions:
Screen the video on Dorothea Lange provided below. Consider what is meant by her statement “the camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see
without a camera.” Discuss Lange’s goals and compositional style, and analyze two of her photographs. Be sure to properly identify each work by title and
connect how it applies to discussion.
Go to
Dorothea Lange: An American Odyssey (Links to an external site.)
Be specific and avoid generalizing about chosen works. Remember to explain how chosen photographs fit into the discussion. Be sure to use your own
words as plagiarism is a serious offense. Each paragraph should consist of at least 6 or 7 sentences. Short sentences that appear to simply meet the length
quota will lose significant points. Each paragraph should be detailed, content rich, and say something of substance rather than simply filling up space.
