Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not so artistic imo
I went to local book store to see few photography magazines, including "Aperture", to see what makes this magazine so famous and all.
I just quickly flipped through pages then there were those BnW pictures...
men and women having sex in bushes...like...2 couples or so...
Wow....it made me sick...although those pics didn't show such nudity
it was the idea. What's so artistic about BnW pics of a guy reaching inside a woman's underwear? or Is it that something 'amateurs' like ... Read More
Rating:  - Froma All I've Read
Although I have yet to subscribe to Aperture, what I've heard and what little I've seen advertised in one of Sally Mann's famous publications is enough to arouse my interest, and I can't wait to partake of a first issue of 'Aperture'.Feedback from other members is always anticipated and welcomed.
Rating:  - Worth the subscription
Aperture is indeed the preeminent art photography magazine, and consistently has enough good material to warrant a subscription independent of its clout.Although ostensively devoted to art photography, many of the spreads are essentially photojournalism.
If you are primarily interested in just art photography, and can subscribe only to one magazine, I would suggest "Blind Spot".
Rating: - Pretentious and Plodding
Aperture is THE premier photographic magazine today... which is to say it embodies all the fashionable cliches and pretentions of the contemprary post-modern scene.
Out of focus shots? Ragged borders? All here. Family snapshots reinterpreted as high art? We got 'em. Egocentric self-portraits by the dozen? Step right up.
The "art" in Aperture is uniformly artless, deadly dull, and devoid of any human feeling. But that's what the critics are selling these days.
Rating:  - Joyless Art
This magazine is full of ART (sound of trumpets here).The photographs are unfailingly serious, moody, joyless affairs.There is no room in its pages for smiles, love, or happiness.
As an example, the 50 year retrospective in 2002 had at least three photographs (all technically excellent) of bodies and one of an amputated foot (also technically excellent).Tucked in one corner of one montage was the only smiling face in the entire two issues of the retrospective.
So, if you ... Read More
