Maier’s photographs display the stories of many underrepresented groups, such as a nanny, children, and ordinary people she met on the street. Determining whether or not a creator’s privacy is being violated can be difficult if they are not available to consult on the matter. Does an individual have the right to be forgotten? If in their lifetime they never make their work public, is it acceptable to make the decision for them after their death? Photo: “New York, 108th St. East” by Vivian Maier
