About the Item
Diver, Dortmund, Germany, 1965 by Leonard Freed is a 16” x 20” gelatin silver print, signed and stamped (on back of photo) by the widow Brigitte Freed. This contemporary photograph illustrates Leonard Freed's mastery as a photographer, his ability to translate the 'decisive moment', with diver as subject captured in mid-air. A mysterious and transcendent image perhaps that reveals, in natural light, the agility of a diver in mid-flight.
Provenance: Freed Estate

- #19, 1970s Nightclubs of Chicago South Side - Rare Vintage Silver Gelatin PrintLocated in London, GBA 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...Category
