John Casado Millions of people have seen the work of John Casado, American born. He made his name in advertising and design where he created the branding for NEW LINE CINEMA, ESPRIT and MACINTOSH. His work in the music industry won him cult status and received a Grammy Award for design. In 1984, John mounted a show of abstract paintings (alongside the work of Man Ray) at the Stephen Wirtz Gallery, San Francisco. Today his art involves photography. JOHN CASADO: AN ARTIST FOR OUR NEW CENTURY One indication that we have truly entered a new era of creativity are the photographs of John Casado. His nudes, reveal new attitudes and new visions that stamp him firmly as an artist who differs from his predecessors of the past 170 years. In the past two centuries, from the earliest days of photography, the nude has evolved slowly, but there is now a decided change. - David Leddick The Casado Lith Prints The photograph is a traditional silver gelatin print. However, the technique used to produce these prints is quite unusual. They are all printed on Kodak Ecktalure paper, which is, unfortunately, no longer manufactured. The artist discovered that the cadmium in the paper reacted in a very different way when processed with a specific A&B Litho developer. The developer had to be aged to give the desired effect, but the impact of the aging process was impossible to predict. So in the end, the texture, color and density of each print was entirely different and could not be duplicated from one printing session to the next. At any one time, the developer could only produce a limited number of prints, each bearing a slightly unique character. Each photographic print from John Casado is sold as new, in pristine condition. Artist signed, dated Verso. A beautiful figurative photographic still life image featuring a woman's folded hands.

  • #19, 1970s Nightclubs of Chicago South Side - Rare Vintage Silver Gelatin Print
    Located in London, GB
    A camera is a window through which a photographer interacts with the world, and it's up to the operator to decide whether his camera will be a barrier or a mirror between he and his subjects. In the 1970s, Michael Abramson chose the latter path when he brought his camera to Pepper's Hideout on Chicago's South Side. Following in the footsteps of his acknowledged influence Gyula Halász, a Hungarian photographer better known as Brassaï who became the pre-eminent chronicler of the Paris nightlife he loved so much, Abramson initiated himself into the nightlife of Chicago's predominantly black neighbourhoods. He was very much a part of the scene he documented on film, drinking, laughing, and dancing with his subjects into small hours and becoming as much a part of the atmosphere as the locals who frequented the same nightspots he did. - Joe Tangari (Numero Group, 2009) This series won Abramson a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts in 1978 and launched his career as a photojournalist. Eventually the project resulted in a hardbound book, Light: On the South Side, including the Grammy and Mojo nominated album, featuring Chicago blues...
