DON’T BE SHY, MAKE ME AN OFFER! For many years photographers from Ansel Adams to Weston would make an original photograph to be used in publications, up coming show announcements, newspaper stories, etc. In recent years these “press photos” have become prized collector items. As were the Adams and others, few if any were ever signed, this one is also unsigned. It’s a chance to own an original photograph at a very affordable price. JOCK STURGES PUBLISHED 1983 TREA – NORTHERN CALIFORNIA 8X10 PHOTOGRAPH. Letter of authenticity included from one of Jock’s long time New York City dealers. With his background in perceptual psychology, Jock Sturges aims to reach the heart of his subjects; his color and black-and-white photographs capture people in the fullness of their beauty, individuality, and dignity. In his celebrated work, he focuses primarily on portraits of nude adolescents and their families. These images scandalized conservatives during the culture wars of the 1990’s in America. The artist is known for developing deep bonds of trust, friendship, and collaboration with his subjects, many of whom he has photographed for decades, chronicling their growth from childhood into adulthood. I dont exist without my models, without the people in my pictures, Sturges once said. Even my best photograph of them is nevertheless the palest imitation of the miraculous soul that is the real person.
