Lina Maple at SARCA: High Fashion Photography - Just Ads or Art?

The fine line that exists between High Fashion Photography and Fine Art continues to become even more and more blurry. Historically, Fine Art Photographers have been criticized for their forays into the world of fashion, but in recent years, some of the world's leading blue chip galleries have begun to display Fashion Photography in their gallery exhibitions, legitimizing the notion of Fashion Photography as Fine Art.
