New York underground
Despite its familiar subject — the New York skyline — and its classic composition, with a clear foreground and background, this photograph by Peter Hujar is disconcerting.
“Sally Mann’s Invisibles”, by Étienne Helmer
From the site of the deadliest battle of the American Civil War (Antietam, Virginia, September 17, 1862), a century and a half later, Sally Mann brought back an image produced with the help of mid-19th century techniques, with all of the imperfections – spots, streaks and burns – of collodion negatives.
Peter Hujar and the brief history of “Newspaper”, by Marcelo Gabriel Yáñez
On January 2, 1986 Peter Hujar covered the walls of the Gracie Mansion Gallery on 167 Avenue A with a two-image high grid of seventy square medium-format black and white silver-gelatin prints that encompassed landscapes, portraits, ruins, animals, trash, and water. It is recreated in the current Jeu de Paume exhibition. The grid begins with a portrait of Isaac Hayes from 1971 and a portrait of a corpse in the Palermo Catacombs from 1963.
