Robert Frank's - The Americans - @ The MET, NYC
Trolley Car, New Orleans - 1955
Many things have and will be said of Robert Frank's monumental photographic reportage of the state of things in America back in '55. Jack Kerouac said,
"Anybody doesn't like these pitchers don't like potry, see? Anybody don't like potry go home see Television shots of big hatted cowboys being tolerated by kind horses. Robert Frank, Swiss, unobtrusive, nice, with that little camera that he raises and snaps with one hand he sucked a sad poem right out of America onto film, taking rank among the tragic poets of the world."
Was lucky enough to catch the entire body of work for his romp through the heartlands and badlands last night at the Metropolitan Museum while on assignment. Along with Cartier-Bresson, Frank has been my true mentor and teacher through all these years. Thanks.

The Thinker - RODIN
Ah, the ebb and flow of life.
Back on THE ROAD!
Vegas tomorrow.
A week back in the Bay Area.
NYC for two two weeks.
Then, the Tucson desert odyssey with the Wild Hare.
More, to come. Much, much more... so much more to come.
