I'm too a fellow fan of his early work, which I find amazing, for the poetry and the mistery in his images, sometimes close to his friend Robert Frank's work. also, remember that he also shot with Leicas, III series and later M series. the old street photo Kodachromes were shot at about 40 ASA, at night. even with Times Square's harsh lights, it was no small victory to get printable shots, let alone work of such high quality about Faurer and Philly: a son of Russian Jew immigrants, he lived in Philadelphia for many years thanks for the post, Kyle Cassidy some of my fave Faurer links: http://www.andover.edu/addison/exhibition/2002-spring/faurer.htm http://perso.wanadoo.fr/o/faurer_docu_01.htm his gallery: http://www.peterfetterman.com/artists/faurer/faurer_sm.html I look almost weekly at his excellent book ( http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1858941652/qid=1055688824/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_1/104-5646877-8568701?v=glance&s=books&n=507846) > > >------------------------------ > >Date: Sat, 14 Jun 2003 12:12:38 -0400 >From: Kyle Cassidy <KCassidy@asc.upenn.edu> >Subject: [Leica] okay all you supposed street photographers.... >Message-ID: <ECC6F7B330A26C40B652962C47DEA2580208F0C3@asc02.asc.upenn.edu> >References: > >i went to the opening of the Louis Faurer show at the philadelphia museum of >art yesterday and was duely impressed. >i was pleased to see some of the philadelphia art mafia at the opening, and >celeberties like philly's own David Graham. but NO LUGGERS! what's with >that?! > >kyle >- -- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Free E-mail for life. http://www.jmail.co.jp Multi-lingual web hosting. http://www.servance.jp Get your own domain. http://www.domaintorou.com - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
