RED BAR no 85 (AFTER SAUL LEITER). - Limited Edition of 5 Photograph

Nothing in this photograph is unambiguous: through a steamed-up window, indistinct figures are plunged into a red-orange glow. A seemingly ordinary, accidental scene, separated from which we are separated by a metal railing cutting diagonally through the frame, is disturbing, dark, and in dialogue with the aesthetics of cinema noire and Saul Leiter's street photography. The photograph comes from a larger neo-noire series entitled Bars. Cf. my photography Yellow Bar No. 5; Night Bar No. 06; Emergency Exit - Hommage a Saul Leiter.
