Christopher Rauschenberg

Oregon-based photographer Christopher Rauschenberg is a founding member of the Blue Sky Photographers’ Collective and Gallery. His work has been widely exhibited. The photographs I will be studying are from his Walking with Atget, Christopher Rauschenberg retraced Eugene Atget’s steps in and around Paris 100 years later. The results are remarkable photo pairs, plus some new discoveries. Walking with Atget. For these photographs, Rauschenberg revisited Paris locations photographed by the French photographer Eugene Atget in the early 20th century, rephotographing the same views at the end of the 20th century to reveal what had changed and what had not. I have looked at this artist because he has done a comparable thing to what I am intending to do with this unit. This being taken photos of what another photographer has captured then going back to the same location and retake the same photo but what of the place looks like now.
