Untitled (three cows facing camera) c. 1975

Editor: Here we have "Untitled (three cows facing camera)" by Ken Whitmire Associates. It's a black and white photograph, and I can't help but find their direct stares so funny. What do you make of this piece? Curator: Well, there’s a certain bovine stoicism, isn't there? They’re so matter-of-fact, unflinching. It makes me think about how often we overlook the animals around us, their own quiet existences. It’s as if the photographer is saying, "Look, really *look* at these creatures." Editor: I hadn't thought about it like that. It's more than just funny, it’s about seeing. Curator: Precisely! Sometimes the most profound art is simply about paying attention, wouldn't you agree?
