About the Item

Mitchell Funk breaks with traditional black and white photography and shoots on the street with Kodachrome. His goal: make color photography full of color in what was then a nascent art form. In this image, the colorful walls are much of a subject as the introspective man. When Funk shoots on the street, he scans the environment for situations with remarkable color. In 1971, the idea of colorful color photographs was the radical trailblazing idea that has taken root in street shooters today. Mitchell Funk invented it over 50 years ago. Signed dated and numbered 3/15 lower right recto, other sizes available, printed later, unframed. This work is printed on fine art Hahnemuhle paper. The color may vary from monitor to monitor.
