In A Third Look, Joseph Maida reflects on Lee Friedlander's nudes
from the 1970's and 80's, reinterpreting this series as a cutting
edge homage both to Friedlander, the modernist titan of
photography, and to LGBTQIA+ bodies across gender and identity
spectra. When curator John Szarkowski first presented Friedlander's
nudes in a solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in
1991, he wrote that "the qualities of generosity and openness, and
the habit of continual exploration-of logical extemporization
enlivened by an unassuming audacity" make Friedlander's nudes so
"richly and rewardingly complex." Maida, viewing the traits of
openness, exploration, extemporization, and audacity as queerness
itself, reimagined Friedlander's nudes by picturing different
bodies in A Third Look to converse with Friedlander's. Maida calls
their feminist reclamation of history "a visual queering of
modernist photography, providing a visible reconciliation of where
the canon of art photography has historically allowed us to see"
with the broader spectrum of the human nude.
