Nobody Cares About Your Stupid Pictures Dale O'Dell

Nobody Cares About Your Stupid Pictures is a collection of essays, articles and commentary on the state of contemporary art and photography, post-digital revolution. Dale O'Dell continues the examination and critique of modern photography that he began in 'Photographic Memories' (a companion volume to this book). Written from the perspective of a working artist, Nobody Cares About Your Stupid Pictures examines the new issues brought about by technology-driven change and tackles the age-old issues that confront anyone who tries to earn a living in the arts today, especially photographers in the new field of digital art. Nobody Cares About Your Stupid Pictures includes the Digital Manifesto - the true definition of digital art. Dale tackles other burning issues like: some people's need for expensive cameras; getting paid, getting stiffed and getting old. The real math of limited-editions; a critical examination of Vincent Van Gogh and Thomas Kinkade (together at last!). He addresses the all too common art-scam; what it's like to sell-out and fail and much more. Brought to you with honesty, intelligence and humor from one who's been-there and shot-that and survived to tell the tale. Nobody Cares About Your Stupid Pictures is a follow-up and companion volume to Dale O'Dell's 2009 book, "Photographic Memories - A look at life through the lens."Dale O'Dell is a photographer and digital artist. His commercial works are published internationally and his photographic and digital art has been exhibited in over two-hundred solo and group exhibitions. Dale has written for most all of the photographic magazines and journals during the past thirty years.
