After the death of his wife, Andre Kertesz consoled himself by
taking up a new camera, the Polaroid SX70. As with earlier
equipment, he mastered the camera and produced a provocative body
of work that both honored his wife and lifted him out of
depression. Here Kertesz dips into his reserves one last time,
tapping new people, ideas, and tools to generate a whole new body
of work through which he transforms from a broken man into a
youthful artist. Taken in his apartment just north of New York City
s Washington Square, many of these photographs were shot either
from his window or in the windowsill. We see a fertile mind at
work, combining personal objects into striking still lifes set
against cityscape backgrounds, reflected and transformed in glass
surfaces. Almost entirely unpublished work, these photographs are a
testament to the genius of the photographer s eye as manifested in
the simple Polaroid."
