i dont get it. what am i supposed to be admiring?

absolutley fair call.
wrt to the final still, i believe it's called 'art' (no send) - juxtaposition, tilt, 'grand' (w/ no sheet). a clock! clock = art, surely! humour?
vacuous 'talent' + portrait does it for me tbh...

It's fashion photography, really well shot. Annie Liebowitz better watch out. She's already bankrupt and she might be out of a job soon by the looks of it.

hmm. i think you might need to examine your prejudices! she's actually a very radically talented stylist in a field where her flair is definitely not the norm. it's no more preposterous than making artistic claims for modern uk garage - actually considerably less so....

The imagery (particularly the last one) reminds me an awful lot of a film called Alice ou la Derniere Fugue - hardly surprising I guess 'cause they're both based on Alice In Wonderland (or through the looking glass) but they've both interpreted it in the same way.
 
you misinterpret me mr. bot, i attempted appreciation of that particular shot. "no send" sought to make that apparent.
given the facts, i ignore your assertion of prejudice.
"artistic claims for modern uk garage" tho, simply perplexes..
