Rosalind Fox Solomon Art

b. 1930

Rosalind Fox Solomon is an artist based in New York City and works primarily with photography. Solomon is celebrated for her emotionally evocative portraits depicting human suffering, ritual and struggle for survival. During the 1970s, Solomon produced photographs of dolls and mannequins, documented the ill over the course of a year-long project at Chattanooga Hospital, Tennessee and also produced portraits of well-known artists and politicians, including William Eggleston and President Jimmy Carter. John Szarkowski included Solomon’s work in the 1978 exhibition, “Mirrors and Windows” at the Museum of Modern Art, New York City; and exhibited examples from her dolls and mannequins series in the show, “Photography for Collectors.” Szarkowski also selected 50 of Solomon’s prints for MoMA’s permanent collection.

In 1986, Solomon’s work was presented in the solo exhibition, “Rosalind Solomon, Ritual,” and has since appeared in numerous MoMA group shows, including the 2010–11 exhibition, “Pictures by Women: A History of Modern Photography.” In 1987, Solomon began making portraits of individuals with AIDS in the hope of helping to dissolve the stigma that surrounded them as they were sick and dying. Sixty-five of these portraits were featured in the 1988 exhibition, “Portraits in the Time of AIDS,” at New York University’s Grey Gallery. A selection of these portraits was also shown in 2013 at the Bruce Silverstein Gallery, New York City and again in 2015 in the Salon d’Honneur of the Grand Palais, in Paris. Solomon’s work is included in the collections of over 50 museums around the world, including the Bibilithèque nationale de Francein Paris, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art and the Brooklyn Museum in New York City, the Corcoran Gallery of Art and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC; George Eastman House, Rochester in New York, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London among many others.

Lombardi Huddle, Green Bay Packer Coach Vince Lombardi 1966 by Art Shay
By Art Shay
Located in Chicago, IL
Famed Green Bay Packer coach Vince Lombardi photographed at Lambeau Field in 1966 by Art Shay. The angle of this shot is particularly interesting. Art was definitely up close and personal with the coach and players that day! This photograph is not framed. Please contact the gallery for framing options. Art Shay Lombardi Huddle, 1966 silver gelatin print, printed later 20h x 16w in 50.80h x 40.64w cm ASY15080 “Art Shay’s photography shakes you up, sets you down gently, pats you on the head and then kicks you in the ass.” Roger Ebert “[Shay’s work] ranks with some of the greats of the 20th century.” Ellen & Richard Sandor, Renowned photo collectors “I’ve admired Art Shay’s work for almost forty years, and he keeps getting better. He can do anything with a camera, but what he mostly does is capture real moments and transform them into visual poetry. His work continues to be an inspiration to me.” William Friedkin, Director of French Connection “Art Shay is one of our finest photographers. His work over the past fifty years has artfully captured the beauty, humor, and pathos of America.” Studs Terkel “Art Shay is one of the best photojournalists I know. I’ve been a fan of his work since the early 1950s - before the launch of playboy magazine.” Hugh Hefner “Algren, Terkel, Royko, they gave us a voice. Art Shay gave us a face.” Tony Fitzpatrick, Chicago Artist “Art Shay is America’s Cartier-Bresson.” Thomas Dyja, author of The Third Coast “Chicago’s Art Shay in many ways is to American photography what Nelson Algren was to American writing: that rare and absolutely necessary citizen who’s blessed with a cold eye, a clear head, and a warm heart. What is it about Chicago that keeps giving us men like this?” Russell Banks, Novelist “The best images of Simone de Beauvoir and her times have been passed down to us by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Gisele Freund, Robert Doisneau, Georges Brassai, and in America, the Chicago-based Art Shay, all world-class photographers.” Christophe Loviny, Art Editor, Paris “Art Shay is the best photo-journalist Chicago ever produced.” Arthur Siegel...
