Neal Slavin
Staten Island Ferry Crew, New York City

1973

About the Item

24 x 24 inch digital chromogenic print Edition 15 + 3AP Signed, titled, dated and editioned on frame label provided Neal Slavin, a native New Yorker, began photographing groups in 1972. He quickly realized that shooting in color yielded greater nuance and detail, placing him among the first generation of photographers, along with William Eggleston and Joel Meyerowitz, to fully embrace color. Over the past four decades, Slavin has recorded hundreds of groups from the most obscure to the most celebrated, both in the US and abroad: Sabrett Hot Dog vendors, NYC; The Silurian Border Morris Men, Herefordshire; the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Salt Lake City; Elephant Keepers with Katie and Kumara, Bedfordshire; and the Mahayana Buddhist Service, NYC. He has published three books: “Portugal” (Lustrum Press, 1971), “When Two or More Are Gathered Together” (Farrar Straus Giroux, 1974); and “Britons” (Aperture, 1986). His prints have been acquired by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the Centre Pompidou, Paris; the International Center of Photography (ICP), New York; the National Portrait Gallery and the National Museum of American Art, Washington, DC; the National Media Museum, London; and the John Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, among many others.

    By Yoko Ikeda
    Located in New York, NY
    37 x 45.75 inch type-c print Edition 5. Signed on label verso. This peaceful and harmoniously ordered photograph is representative of Yoko Ikeda's personal way of seeing. She is drawn to humble subjects and surroundings, places free of obvious associations, which lend themselves to poetic transformation when seen through her camera. It's notable that the blue retaining wall that ambles across this picture reads as the most aquatic feature—this despite the fact that The Sea of Japan can be glimpsed in a sliver, just over its right side. This gently playful inversion—a cement wall and the sea trading places...
