1971
About the Item
Illuminated in rim lighting, a lone man sits crouched in front of an early example of street art. A giant abstract painting raises seven stories and faces Houston Street in Lower Manhattan. Street photographer Mitchell Funk conveys a dual message in this work. On the one hand, this is a study of the loneliness and isolation of life on the lower east side Bowery area in 1971. On the other, it's a statement about the early use of color photography. Funk's work has always explored the color aspect of color photography. Here we see late light illuminating and a wall of color.
Signature: Signed, Dated, Numbers 3/15 lower right recto, other sizes available, unframed, printed later. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper

The subjects for his striking and captivating visuals are typically set in the most ordinary environments, drawing the viewer into a charged but serene experience based on composition, palette and formal lines. Saturated in color, the nominal subjects gather a haunting and mesmerizing quality, creating a poignant pretext for the making of a formal color photograph. Decisively capturing the traces left by humanity, Pawassar's images are filled with a sense of universal nostalgia and pay homage to the passage of time and the extinguished moment, referencing documentary and street photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Sebastian Salgado...Category
