About the Item

"I See You Too" Bahamas, 2021 Available sizes: 20 x 30 in / Edition of 3 32 x 48 in / Edition of 3 "Most of the sea turtles I encounter keep their distance from divers and I’m happy to respect their space. But this intrepid little voyager faced me head-on as if to remind me of my place as a guest below the surface. He lifted his defiant little snout to my camera and didn’t seem to mind my company as we glided along in the warm shallows. I was charmed by his bold spirit and made this image as a tribute to the incredible resilience of his home in the Bahamas. Working in the archipelago with such a vibrant community of tireless advocates gave me the strength to take on our ocean’s greatest challenges with unguarded hope for the future." - Cristina Mittermeier Cristina Mittermeier Biography: A virtuous mind and voice in conservation photography and one of the most influential female photographers in the world, Cristina Mittermeier began her career as a Marine Biologist working in her native Mexico.

#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...
