Finkelstein, Chapter 4+5

- "Art materializes the imagination; it turns objects into surfaces that can be overwritten by the imagination. Advertising achieves the same."

- "This achievement of advertising brings into focus the question of how influential the visual landscape is in describing the every day."

- "Arbus challenged the conventions of the fashion message. She produced portrait photographs that framed her subjects so that they disrupted and reversed the status quo."

- "Fashion is also a process that transforms the mundane activities of everyday life into more elaborate and complex aesthetic experiences by altering the emotional investment surrounding the display."
