"The dynamism of the images and the inventive sequencing make this
not just a book of great photographs, but a great photography book
full of energy and verve." "... a fitting tribute to [Shapiro's]
legacy" - B&W Photography Famed photojournalist Steve Schapiro
and his son Theophilus Donoghue have collaborated on seventy
thirty, a photo project that is 70% Schapiro, 30% Donoghue. Seventy
thirty depicts the various faces and expressions of humanity, from
metropolitans to migrants, unseen homeless to conspicuous
celebrities, such as Alec Guinness, Allen Ginsberg, Muhammad Ali,
Robert De Niro, Rene Magritte, Janis Joplin, Andy Warhol, and the
Velvet Underground. Schapiro photographs early New York
skateboarders while Donoghue documents current Colombian
breakdancers. Father and son both capture philosophically poignant
moments that rouse reflection. Schapiro includes his classic photo
"Man on Iceberg," which was the opening double-page spread of a
Life story on existentialism. In a similar fashion, Donoghue
contributes his contemplative "Hindsight Intersection," which was
recently featured in ARTSY's 20 21 Artists in Support of Human
Rights Watch benefit auction. Shooting in monochrome with an
occasional dash of colour, Schapiro and Donoghue portray the proud
and lofty as well as the humble and humorous. Alternately profound
and playful, Schapiro and Donoghue's photographs capture a vast
range of human emotion and experience. Like his father, Donoghue is
equally concerned with social justice issues. For this project,
Schapiro has selected images from the 60s civil rights movement
and, with Donoghue, provided photos from today's Black Lives Matter
protests and environmental rallies. Apart from numerous stateside
locations, their project includes images from India, Italy,
Nicaragua, Panama, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Ecuador. Together
father and son provide a touching overview of humanity throughout
the world from the 1950s to present day.
