I was wondering does anyone else get the impression that photography is not see as one of the serious art forms? It seems the only people who have an y respect for fine art photography are those directly involved. Example flip through almost any book on modern art and you begin to wonder if th e editors have even heard of photography.(Actually you might see a cindy sherman at the end but that does not count.)My local museum has a modern art section an d then a print and photography section (which by the way is usually closed).The fact that they separate photography from the other art says it right there. As m atter of fact looking back on a visit to the met it was the same. Even more infu riating is when they hang paintings by know frauds or will hang inferiour work b y big names.(most museums will show just about anything picasso touched) To me t his a tired argument that should have died with the horse and buggy. Would like to here the opinions of other photographers? Josh
