Is "Stuckism Photography" a collective of some sort or is it a genre of photography? The reason I ask is that if it is a collective, it is in the wrong category and if it is a genre, then the title is wrong. Thanks.

I have moved the article from "Stuckism Photography" to "Stuckist Photographers", as it is primarily about a group with the latter name, which is the one used on their web site. However, it is also a group that states it embodies a particular type of photography, or at least a particular philosophy concerning it, i.e. a genre, which the article covers.

Well, all collectives do that to some extent, but classifying them all as both a collective and a genre wouldn't be terribly helpful to people. Recury 18:34, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs more.

[edit]

This article doesn't really say much about what makes Stuckist Photographers a distinct group. Artistic integrity and so forth aren't defining principles; they're pretentious assertions without a context. Kind of like defining bagism as "a group of earnest hippies dedicated to changing the way the world works." The article does relate stuckist photographers to stuckist painters, which would be helpful if I knew what a stuckist painter was. I could look that up, but I don't think I should have to.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.12.64.121 (talkcontribs).

Well, feel free to add more! Tyrenius 08:07, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
