Moondance Posted February 25, 2018 Author Posted February 25, 2018 Roger Schall Roger Schall (1904-1995) was a French photographer and photojournalist. He worked in a variety of photographic disciplines including fashion, portraits, nudes, still life and reportage. From June of 1940 to August 1944, he documented the Nazi occupation of Paris, hiding his negatives so they wouldn't be found. Schall also documented post-war Paris, produced images for the fetish clothing company Diana Slip and continued working as a photographer into the 1970s. Images by Roger Schall ...

In 1939, he escaped Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia. (His parents and brother Hans were all murdered by the Nazis; Grunzweig's first photograph, made in 1926, was a portrait of Hans.) Arriving in the U.S., he settled permanently in New York City, whose architectural forms, visual excitement and relentless pace would inform and inspire his photography throughout his life. He joined the newly formed United Nations and worked there -- in communications, media and public relations -- until his retirement in 1974. One of his best known images is "Between Heaven and Earth,” a terrific shot of a window cleaner at the United Nations building that won U.S. Camera magazine’s first prize in 1951. In 1964, he won the Saturday Review first prize for his photograph of architect Eero Saarinen’s TWA Terminal at Kennedy Airport. Grunzweig returned to Prague three times between 1969 and 1983 and again in 1991 and in 1998. His last visit was for the opening of a retrospective show of his work, the first exhibit of his photography in the city of his birth. He died just short of his 99th birthday.

Moondance Posted February 27, 2018 Author Posted February 27, 2018 Arthur Rothstein http://kevinrayarcher.com/WordPress/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Arthur-Rothstein.jpg Rothstein during his time as a Farm Security Administration photographer. Working in support of FDR’s New Deal agenda, the photographers of the FSA (including Rothstein, Dorothea Lange, Walker Evans) sought to improve conditions for poor farmers and sharecroppers further impoverished by the Great Depression. Their cameras served as tools to “visualize social facts, to show the truth of what was happening,” unobscured by politics or fantasy. Arthur Rothstein (1915-1985) is recognized as one of America’s premier photojournalists. During a five decade career, his photographs ranged from a hometown baseball game to the drama of war, from struggling rural farmers to U.S. Presidents. During the Great Depression, Rothstein was invited to join the federally sponsored Farm Security Administration (FSA) established by President Roosevelt in 1935. He later served as the director of photography for Look magazine until it stopped printing in 1971, and then for Parade magazine until his death. Recipient of more than 35 awards in photojournalism and a former juror for the Pulitzer Prize, Rothstein was also a founder and officer of the American Society of Magazine Photographers.

Moondance Posted February 28, 2018 Author Posted February 28, 2018 John Palatinus http://www.px-agenda.eu/john/bilder/about/jp_vs.jpg Along with Lon of New York, Bruce of Los Angeles and Bob Mizer of the Athletic Model Guild, John Palatinus (1929-2014) was one of the pioneering male physique photographers of the 1950s, noted for his use of light and shadow to highlight the topography of the male physique. He used clean light-washed backgrounds to clearly define the figure at a time when some photographers were using kitschy sets and props. Born in South Bend, Indiana, he lived and worked in that area as a window display designer. In 1954 he began photographing the young bodybuilders of South Bend. His work first appeared in "Tomorrow’s Man," a pocket-sized bodybuilding magazine. He relocated to New York City in 1956, had a studio on West 13th Street in Greenwich Village, continued to be featured in "TM" and did a thriving mail-order business, selling his photographs nationwide. Beginning in 1958, Palatinus started shooting and selling full-frontal nude photos through the mail. His studio was raided by U.S. Postal Inspectors in cooperation with the New York Police Department. All of his photographs, original negatives, cameras, lights and equipment were confiscated, never to be returned. At trial, he was convicted not of distribution of so-called "pornography," but of conspiracy, a misdemeanor charge. After living in New York for 45 years, John Palatinus retired to Palm Springs. In 2010, an exhibition of his photographs was staged in Los Angeles, and subsequently in Berlin, Oslo, and other cities.

Moondance Posted March 7, 2018 Author Posted March 7, 2018 Kenneth Josephson Kenneth Josephson, born in Detroit in 1932, began his formal photography training at the Rochester Institute of Technology, earning an Associate’s Degree before being drafted into the army in 1953, where he spent several months in Germany doing photolithography for aerial reconnaissance. He returned to R.I.T. thereafter, earning his BFA and studying under Minor White and Beaumont Newhall. After completing graduate studies at the Institute of Design in 1960 (where he studied under Harry Callahan and Aaron Siskind), Josephson became an instructor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and taught there for almost forty years. His work has had solo exhibitions at, among other places, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; the Art Institute of Chicago; and the Whitney Museum of American Art.

He appeared in An Adventuress (1920), I Am Guilty (1921) and The Unchastened Woman (1925), and designed the costumes for a weird 1925 version of The Wizard of Oz, a film that bears no resemblance to either the book or the famous 1939 film. After his brief film career, he turned to photography, pushing the boundaries of both the law and aesthetics as an early practitioner of male physique photography during the 1930s and 40s. Kovert committed suicide in 1949 (some sources say 1950), and much of his work has been lost. Fifty-seven remaining images were collected into a book, Hollywood Nudes.

Moondance Posted March 28, 2018 Author Posted March 28, 2018 John Dugdale Born in Connecticut in 1960, John Dugdale's interest in photography started at the age of twelve with his first camera, a present from his mother. He attended the School of the Visual Arts in New York City, majoring in photography and art history. In 1983 his work was shown in his first solo exhibition at Vienna's Molotov Art Gallery. He then began a decade-long commercial career, working for such clients as Bergdorf Goodman, Martha Stewart and Ralph Lauren. In 1993, at 33, Dugdale experienced near total blindness due to a stroke and CMV retinitis, an HIV-related illness. He became completely blind in his right eye and lost eighty percent visibility in his left eye. This ended his commercial career, but he persisted in photography, and continued an exploration of techniques from the 19th century. His sensibility for bygone techniques emphasizes the poetics of his work and the transcendence of time and place, seemingly transporting the imagery to a different era. Dugdale has had over 25 solo shows in galleries all over the world. His photographs are included in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Whitney Museum and The Museum of Fine Arts (Houston). He has been inducted into the Royal Photographic Society in Bath, and has spoken on the BBC, on NPR, at universities and at other events, discussing 19th century photographic processes, his own aesthetic point of view and what it means “to see." “The mind is the essence of your sight. It’s really the mind that sees.” - JOHN DUGDALE Self-portrait with Ancestor, 1990 http://muybridgeshorse.com/wp-content/uploads/john-dugdale-03.jpg http://muybridgeshorse.com/wp-content/uploads/john-dugdale-01.jpg http://vagazine.com/vaga_v3/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/JohnDugdale4.jpg Long Enough, 2000 http://vagazine.com/vaga_v3/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/JohnDugdale3.jpg Cascade, 1999 http://vagazine.com/vaga_v3/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/JohnDugdale2.jpg In the Shadow of His Beloved, 2001 + Just Sayin, + honcho and bigvalboy 3
Moondance Posted March 29, 2018 Author Posted March 29, 2018 Max Dupain Dupain in 1938 Max Dupain (1911-1992) was an Australian modernist photographer. He is best known for his now-iconic image, Sunbaker, taken in 1937. While on the south coast of New South Wales, he photographed the head and shoulders of a friend, Harold Salvage, lying on the sand at Culburra Beach. That image, not widely known until it was used as the poster for the opening exhibition of the Australian Centre for Photography in 1975, has since become one of the most reproduced Australian photographs.
