Good topics to to select from: -- what historical/cutural/art history/sociological factors MAY HAVE INFLUENCED WEGMAN's Work (whether or not he would agree, you may see allusions to other factors). compare these to any anecdotal factors Wegman offers. (see the recorded lecture he gave at Phillips by contacting POLK library). --What artistic dilemma's does he try to solve? How? Why? When? where, etc. --What is the role of technological development in his photography? --What is the role of artistic evolution in his photography? --what is with the amateur style of his painting? --What is the point of the big mixed media postcard embedded paintings? What is he trying to say with them?
