Paul Strand: Under the Darkcloth

You know when you’re getting old when you can’t remember the circumstances of an event even though you think it significant.

I don’t remember where I was introduced to Paul Strand’s work. I remember being at a lecture or film about him and I remember knowing that I wasn’t going to like the guy. I was wrong. I do remember that it was only a few minutes into it, and I was re-evaluating my preconceptions. Maybe that’s the important thing.

Here is a six part video about Paul Strand. It is excellent. It’s a much watch. So sit back and relax for a while.

Also, thanks as always to Tom Johnston for putting this out there. Tom is quite an accomplished photographer. Check out his photographs at http://www.tjohnstonphoto.com
