William Giles Art

American

William Giles studied and worked with many wonderful photographers, including Minor White, Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange, Beaumont Newhall, Nathan Lyons, Hollis Todd, Ralph Hattersley, Paul Caponigro and Jerry Uelsmann. He has an MFA from the University of Rochester, where he later served as chairman of the department of photography. He has taught and given workshops on both coasts. Giles’s photographs document the Black Movement in America; capture the fury of the ocean at Point Lobos; the serenity of the Kiva; the transitions of life and death; and the rhythms of a junkyard. His work has been published in numerous books and portfolios and can be found in museums from San Francisco to Paris.

McDarrah, 1926-2007 Veteran Village Voice photographer Fred W. McDarrah Over a 50-year span, McDarrah documented the rise of the Beat Generation, the city’s postmodern art movement, its off-off-Broadway actors, troubadours, politicians, agitators and social protests. Fred captured Jack Kerouac frolicking with women at a New Year’s bash in 1958, Andy Warhol adjusting a movie-camera lens in his silver-covered factory, and Bob Dylan offering a salute of recognition outside Sheridan Square near the Voice’s old office. Not just a social chronicler, McDarrah was a great photo-journalist. For years, McDarrah was the Voice's only photographer and, for decades, he ran the Voice’s photo department, where he helped train dozens of young photographers, including James Hamilton, Sylvia Plachy, Robin Holland and Marc Asnin. His mailbox was simply marked "McPhoto." An exhibit of McDarrah’s photos of artists presented by the Steven Kasher Gallery in Chelsea was hailed by The New York Times as “a visual encyclopedia of the era’s cultural scene.” artists in their studios, (Alice Neel, Philip Guston, Stuart Davis, Robert Smithson...
