We're overdue for another George Platt Lynes series, so let's start with this shot of Jose Martinez.
The last time I flew through LAX, they had an outdoor art installation thar reminded me of this.
Of course there was no naked man, but there were some square towers.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteLike you, I have long admired the work of George Platt Lynes. I wanted to bring to your attention in case you didn't already know, that on June 4th, 2024 a long in the works documentary called "Hidden Master: the Legacy of George Platt Lynes" was released on DVD and is available on Amazon. I have seen it, it's an excellent film and I recommend it highly. It may mean GPL is in for a rediscovery. I hope so.
Thanks, for posting these and for keeping GPL in featured here.
Rick
Thank you, Rick, for bringing this to our attention. Hopefully, this will bring some well deserved positive attention to this great photographer.
DeleteI have heard about this and look forward to seeing it. It is long overdue.
ReplyDeleteThe twin towers are like phallic symbols.
ReplyDeleteJose Martinez was the beloved muse of Lincoln Kirstein. Elise Rolle at LiveJournal and Brian Ferrar’s blog have much info on GPL and his circle….:)
I agree, and the two blogs you mention are great resources.
