Lynn Goldsmith Art

American, b. 1948
Lynn Goldsmith has documented over five decades of American culture, capturing stars from The Beatles and The Rolling Stones to David Bowie, Blondie and Iggy Pop. Taking advantage of the close access granted to acts in the 60s and 70s, she created insightful, candid shots that delved below the of rock and roll. Goldsmith has a particularly close working relationship with Patti Smith who she photographed for the cover of her legendary Easter album in 1977. The award-winning photographer has had 12 best-selling books of her work published; she also works as a documentary filmmaker and a singer and songwriter (under the pseudonym Will Powers). Goldsmith’s work is held in the collections of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Polaroid Collection, the Museum Of Modern Art, the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Photography, and the permanent collection of Museum Folkwang.

HUICHOL: MOUNTAIN, DESERT, NEW YORK (`95-`21)
By PABLO ORTIZ-MONASTERIO
Located in Ciudad De México, MX
The first person to photograph the Huichol in their remote communities in the inaccessible canyons of the Western Sierra Madre was probably the Norwegian anthropologist, Carl Lumholtz. He ventured into their territory in 1895, shortly before the arrival of the French naturalist and ethnographer Léon Diguet, who was also a photographer. Like so many who were engaged with documenting Indigenous peoples across the Americas in those brutal years of expansion and settlement, Lumholtz believed that the disappearance of his subjects was inevitable: “the weaker must succumb to the stronger, and the Indians will ultimately all become Mexicans.” The photographs of the Huichol by Pablo Ortiz Monasterio—taken on some twenty trips over the past three decades—prove that Lumholtz was fortunately, terribly wrong. They reveal abundant evidence of cultural survival (what the Huichol call “la costumbre”), made possible by their extraordinary resistance to the religious, nationalist, and economic forces that have long assaulted—and that continue to assault—Indigenous communities everywhere. Though Ortiz Monasterio is also an outsider, he does not operate—like Lumholtz or Diguet—as an old-fashioned preservationist, nor is he confident in the superiority of Western culture, nor is his work only destined for museum vitrines...
