To Drunk to Fuck Discussion Question

1) Why is it called too drunk to fuck?

2) What feelings do you get when you look at Williams artwork? Why do you think he so successfully makes you feel you feel that way?

3) Between Williams work and "The Perfect Human" which artist shows repression more, makes your feel anxious?

4) The essay says "Interpretation is slippery, if not outright problematic," how do you begin to interpret Golden's and William's work?

5)What is William trying to say about photography and how we critique it?

6) Is Williams trying to say that the process of photography is more of an art form than the actual product?

7) Why do you think the author chose Golden's work? Do you think Golden is reflective of most photography today, showing desire?

8) The essay says, "Photography has shifted from being a discourse on trying to understand the world to a discourse on trying to understand ourselves. This has always been the case, only now it is more transparent - or less" do you agree with this statement, and if so why? How do you think William's work is a way of understanding ourselves?

9) Which artist's work do you think is more relevant to modern photography.

10) After reading this essay has your perspective on interpreting images changed? Will you analyze your own interpretations?
