Even Donald Trump's had a number of bankruptcies and people seem to still want to do business with him.... is it all about self-promotion sometimes?

the argument isn't about the quality of her work. as stated earlier that's subjective. the point of all of this is that she's been a terrible businesswomen + been very arrogant and this has bitten her on the backdoor. she'll still work and still make great money but her back catalogue will belong to someone else.
shit, if she were in any other country going broke could be an issue but america has the whole chapter 11 thing so she can pretty much dust herself off and start over - and at high rates. any other country forces all kinds of financial and social stigma for up to 7 years.
if nothing else this should serve as a cautionary tale.

I do still admire Annie's 70's work for Rolling Stone, like when she followed the Rolling Stones for all of the 72 US tour and she didn't get addicted to drugs or throw tv's out of windows... etc...

"she's an artist"
Which begs the question: Are graphic designers and ad/fashion photographers "artists"?
I'm a commercial photographer and I don't look at my work as art as much as disposable entertainment and tools for trade. Sure, I do art photography and in the last 3 months I've had 4 exhibitions of my art photography, but the major part of my work is far from art. It's just advertising for clothes, mainly.

wow, calm down coffeemaker.
we should feel for her though, she's an artist, like many here. she can't handle fame.

anyway,
FUCK those companies always wanting to promote themselves with BIG name artists. Screw the establishment and fuck Leibovitz.Recently i saw a fashion retail company wanting to celebrate their birthday with work from new lesser known talents. < GOOD IDEA!
We have plenty of them!
Let's take Schjetne for instance! I'd love to see him shooting some cream on the lady's cup!
THAT FUCKING ASSHOLE CAN SHOOT SOME AWESOME SHIT!
- Haha you're such a cunt. Next year I aim to shoot both the Lavazza and Pirelli calendars.schjetne
- You have changed.raf

If Annie Leibovitz goes out of business we might see some actual good photography in Vanity Fair again. It's been 30 years or so since the photography in that magazine was any good at all.
