Simple, direct, and penetrating, the celebrated photographer
Timothy Greenfield-Sanders portrays his subjects like a painter
from another age. Thanks to his 11x14" Fulmer & Schwing, an old
wooden box dated 1905, which he uses as if he were using a palette
and brush, he produces portraits that are rich in detail without
being overly psychological. The poignant poses and expressions he
captures in his straightforward images convey a sense of the
person. Like Rembrandt and Velazquez depicting the great figures of
their time, Greenfield-Sanders focuses his lens on today's icons:
artists, architects, writers, scientists, actors, directors,
musicians artists, architects. Undoubtedly one of
Greenfield-Sanders's greatest merits is his being able to limit the
distance that separates the portrait from the observer. This
beautifully produced volume brings together an impressive selection
of portraits taken between 1977 and the present with over 100 never
published before. The juxtaposition of the portraits adds a
compelling dimension to the individual portraits. The intensity of
Elaine and Willem de Kooning or Norman Mailer and Gore Vidal
multiplies as they appear next to each other on the page. William
Wegman and Richard Hamilton lean toward each other, toward some
kind of cosmic center. Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg seem to
confirm the notion that a director is in total control. And porn
star Briana Banks, look every bit like a porn star.
