Comments on: Trashy New York- From Trashcans to Garbage and Back Again http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/bernstein07/?p=730 The Arts in New York City / Macaulay Honors College / CUNY / Professor Roslyn Bernstein / Baruch College / Fall 2007 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 20:56:56 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.2 By: Noureen http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/bernstein07/?p=730#comment-48 Noureen Wed, 19 Dec 2007 06:21:15 +0000 http://macaulay.cuny.edu/seminars/bernstein07/?p=730#comment-48 I love the new perspective you gave to garbage Rudy. You know what I really found interesting about you presentation though? The fact that the more you tried to show the messiness the less garbage there was around on the day of your shooting. Nonetheless, I found your juxtaposition of political and social aspects with trash as well. The "tin soldiers' guarding an entrance or you last two lines of how the news is "trash." Overall, I think you captured garbage in a way that added meaning into things we usually just throw away and not think about. Good job! I love the new perspective you gave to garbage Rudy.

Forget global warming! We need to clean up first. Ah, garbage. I gather you did not have much trouble finding any in New York City. All jokes aside, I loved your idea. The pictures and the captions went hand in hand and the result was an extremely funny presentation. I remember shots such as the lone plastic bag floating in the middle of the street. It was almost like the modern day version of dust balls in old western flicks. Another memorable shot was the newspaper bin filled up with trash. I can imagine the looks you got from bystanders. I'm glad to hear that you had fun with this project. That aurora of fun rubbed off on your pictures also. In all, you touched upon the light and humorous side of street photography.
