1930s Andre Kertesz Photography
Silver Gelatin
Known for capturing the essence of a moment, André Kertész was considered one of the most influential photographers of the 20th Century. He was born in Budapest, Hungary, on July 2, 1894. André Kertész’s pictures of everyday life greatly influenced magazine photography in the United States and Europe as his distinctive style showed generations of photographers how to shoot without intruding in the situation or the emotion of the day. After being severely injured during WWI, he returned to Budapest. Surprisingly, his post-war career initially continued as a clerk in the Budapest stock exchange. Kertész moved to Paris in 1925 to work as a freelance photographer. He soon made friends with some of the leading artists of the time, including Fernand Léger, Marc Chagall and Piet Mondrian. In 1928 he bought a Leica, a small handheld camera which gave him the freedom to move about the streets of Paris. The camera-enabled him to capture spontaneous moments of urban life, a subject that would fascinate him throughout his career. With his Leica and the friendship of these artists, he was able to develop a visual history of Paris. His work appeared in French, Italian and British publications, including prominent magazines and newspapers of the day like the London Sunday Times. At the onset of Hitler's Germany and the specter of war on the horizon, Kertész moved to New York City in 1936 to pursue his career as a photographer. He became a United States citizen in 1944. In 1949 he became a staple with Condé Nast. Alongside Alexander Liberman, Kertész helped to transform and elevate House and Garden magazine into the publication envisioned by Mr. Liberman. Once Kertész retired from commercial work in 1962, his work began to be recognized as Fine art photography. His projects harkened back to his early work in Hungary with street scenes, still-life and the movements of everyday people. Kertész's work is in numerous private and public collections including the Museum of Modern Art, The Art Institute of Chicago, J. Paul Getty Museum, Center for Creative Photography, Smithsonian Institution and Pompidou Center. As per Brassaï’s words, “André Kertész has two qualities that are essential for a great photographer, an insatiable curiosity about the world, about people and life and a precise sense of form." Kertész died in New York City, on September 27, 1985.

Ted Higby at Skyline Rodeo, 1928
Located in New York, NY
Listing includes framing with UV plexiglas, free shipping and a 14 day return policy. Ted Higby at Skyline Rodeo, 1928 15 x 12 inch gelatin silver print Image Size: 14 x 8.5 inches Frame size: 22.5 x 17.5 x 2 inches Edition of 15 Lora Webb Nichols was born in 1883 and grew up in the small mining town of Encampment, Wyoming. At the age of 16 Lora received her first camera and from that moment and for the next few decades she produced work that is both stunning in its singular voice and revealing in the world it opens up for us. At first Nichols photographed her family, friends, and the landscape around Encampment, but when the town experienced a copper mining boom Nichols expanded her scope to become a photographer for hire shooting portraits and industrial photographs. When the boom collapsed, Nichols took the risk of opening her own business in Encampment - The Rocky Mountain Studio - which opened in 1925. The studio ran for ten years, accumulating 24,000 negatives that illustrate the lives and environment of the people living in and around the town while creating a distinctive and surprising body of work. If one was to attempt an analogy – Nichols’ pictures fit somewhere between Lartigue and Lange - joyful and generous while objectively intimate. In particular what seems to distinguish Nichols’ work is the way she sees the world from a female perspective. As Vince Aletti...
