1. Who was Alfred Stieglitz and why is he noteworthy in the history of photography?
He ran art galleries in New York and introduced many avant-garde artists to the US. He was also an American photographer along with being a modern art promoter who was instrumental over 50 years.
2. Choose a photograph he made, upload it to your blog, and explain why you chose it as your favorite by him.
I like this one because its from the rooftop of a building, it shows the city at night, and its all the same dark shades with just the bright lights from the buildings.
3. With what famous painter was he in a relationship? Who was she? Upload a painting by her that you like.
Georgia O'Keeffe, and she made large-format paintings of enlarged blossoms and pressed them close up to make it look like they were seen through a magnifying glass.
