"As an object, a photograph has a life of it's own. It can be saved in a shoebox or in a museum. It can be reproduced as information or as advertisement. It can be bought and sold. It may be regarded as a utilitarian object or a work of art. The context in which a photograph is seen effects the meaning a viewer draws from it." Stephen Shore
