Toward Los Angeles, Calif., March 1937. By Dorothea Lange.
Yesterday, Jamie Williams and I arranged for a private print study session at The University of Arizona’s Center for Creative Photography. We selected a box of gelatin silver prints by Dorothea Lange, and a Magnum group portfolio. This image was one of my favorites of the whole lot we viewed, about 50 in all, with the patient help of Art Historian Shana Lopes. I say patient, because Jamie and I wanted to see many of the prints in the best light and position, and Shana was more than accommodating.
The Center has 80,000 works by 2,000 photographers. We know we’ll be back for another session soon. The Center is also exhibiting a large Robert Mapplethorpe show in the main gallery and we toured the walls with plenty of opinions!
