The Mirror as Reflection of Artist, Medium, and Culture In the 1978
Museum of Modern Art exhibition Mirrors and Windows: American
Photography Since 1960, John Szarkowski situates almost two decades
of American photography between two poles defined by the mirror and
the window. Even though this project focuses on still photography, its
window metaphor involves many of the same assumptions of cinematic
window theory. Here, the metaphor relates to the sense that the
camera‟s objectivity can present a true picture of the real world.
Eugène Atget‟s “Prostitute, Paris” is typical of this classification in that
its seemingly simple depiction of social class announces itself not
through the artist‟s intervention but simply by her/his capture of a
slice of emblematic reality. Whereas “window artists” attempt to show
us the world as it is (or seems to be), “mirror artists” look to the
personal and employ “synthetic” revisions in order to present a
subjective view of the world. The mirror artist does not present the
world as much as a subjective interpretation of a personal world.
Szarkowski defines “mirror” photography as “reflecting a portrait of
the artist who made it” but also asserts that one of the most direct
ways an artist attempts to do so is through the drawing of attention to
form and presentation (25). Jerry McMillian‟s “Untitled, Torn Bag”
utilizes such a device in order to present the artist‟s subjective
intervention. In this piece, a torn paper bag houses an image of a field
on the edge of a forest. The self-conscious presentation of the photo
brings together new relationships between photographic
representation and its foregrounded frame. The viewer, confused,
attempts to figure out a relationship between the torn bag frame
and the image behind it.

Mirror
Association: - Picture, - identity. Question: - Which part by me is reflected? What is
to be seen I am ready?
In general:
If a dream of a mirror acts, this shows that the dreaming is procured around his
self-image. He attacks worries what other about him could think, and as a result
must check himself whether he reflects to the outside an authentic picture. If one
sees himself in it, one should investigate himself more exactly to reach to the self-
knowledge, while the blind one or the jumped mirror warns about a wrong self-
portrait. Fear of the ageing or around the health stands possibly behind the dream
symbol also.
Psychologically:
In the fairy tale the mirror has a magic meaning, this is similar also in the dream.
If he appears in the dream action, it is anyway an esteem signal on which should
be exactly entered. As the mirror shows the face of the dreaming in the reality, it
is in the dream the mirror for the soul. He often shows unaware sides of the
dreaming before which this can also frighten, perhaps. However, it can be also
necessary that the dreaming recognises these shadow sides. Therefore, reflecting
dreams should be followed always thoroughly and be analysed. He seems not too
often in the vision because this itself is often a reflexion of the deliberate life and
experience. The Egyptians ascribed to dreams in which a mirror seemed, death or
evil because one in reflected picture 'beside oneself' is, the soul in the not tangible
opponent has slipped. Modern interpreters of dreams pick out something else: The
dreamer looking in the mirror feels side-wrong and finds the way back with it to
himself, - but he attaches like with the photograph retouchings which are
necessary to correct his internal and external appearance for the environment to
the better. If the dreaming looks in his dream in the mirror, this can also mean that
he tries to recognise what happens behind his back, without present people note
this. Maybe the dreaming also worries because of his behaviour in the past to
himself and must think about what he has said or has acted. If the reflexion is
distorted, it is difficult for him to understand himself. If it speaks with him, the
dreaming should hear exactly on his internal which turns on this way to him.
Spiritually:
At the spiritual level the mirror refers in the dream to that self-knowledge whose
basis is wisdom.
Artemidoros:
Is to be considered itself in the mirror and to be found in it his picture similar for a
marrying, for a man like for a woman, from good premeaning, - the reflexion
means a woman, the woman a man to the man because it shows the faces, how
this to each other the children. Blessing brings it also from grief to afflicted
people, - then only if one is free of grief, one takes a mirror to the hand. Suffer

against it it heaps away, - then a mirror is earthly, uninterested from what material
he is worked. It arranges the remaining people to leave the native country, so that
they see again in a foreign country. If his effigy seems to one in the mirror unlikely,
one will award him the fatherhood of illegitimate or foreign children. Nothing good
brings it if one looks to himself worse or more nastily in the mirror, - it means
illnesses and bad mood, just as Itself in the water depicting to the dreaming or one
of his narrowest members the death prophesies.

VERTIGO EFFECT
The "Vertigo effect" (also called dolly zoom or push-pull) was created by
simultaneously zooming in and tracking backward; the result is that the
foreground remains stable while the background expands backwards. The
effect creates a visual equivalent of the disorientation Scottie experiences due
to vertigo and acrophobia.
The shot was created using a model of the tower stairs laid horizontally on its
side, with the camera on a track.
The Vertigo effect has been widely imitated.
