Portraiture

Diane Arbus

(March 14, 1923 – July 26, 1971)

She was an american photographer and writer, noted for black-and-white squared photos of "deviant and marginal people ( dwarfs, giants, transvestites, nudists, crcus performers) or of people whose normality seems ugly or surreal. In 1972, a year after she committed suicide, Arbus became the first American photographer to have photographs displayed at the Venice Biennale.
