Recently, the NYT pulled out a piece based on large format photographs by Edgar Martins of abandoned construction projects, after it was discovered that images were digitally altered (see http://www.aphotoeditor.com/2009/07/...n-are-raised/).
Now Edgar Martins is replying to the critics: http://jmcolberg.com/weblog/2009/07/...at_i_know.html
I personally think that Edgar Martins does very interesting work (see his website), however, while I am still trying to understand what he is saying, I am wondering, do you have to be able to express yourself in such a way to fit into contemporary art photography :-) ?
