Clarence White (1871-1925) was a visionary photographer and teacher who fostered photographers first in his Columbia University classes and later in his own school. A contemporary of Alfred Stieglitz, he strongly maintained that photography stood in the grand tradition of the plastic arts and putting great emphasis on abstract design, no matter what the immediate subject. He was loved for his warm, personal encouragement and his acceptance of women students, among them Dorothea Lange, Clara Sipprell, Margaret Bourke-White, Doris Ullman, Laura Gilpin, Margaret Watkins, and Anne Brigman. The work is based on the aesthetic principles that formed the foundations of modernism.

* consider options for exhibiting narratives - long thin scroll? hung vertically? or horizontally? rectangle? circle?

* think about composition/image/form and color working together (remember the temple of art)
