IVAN FARKAS - PHOTOGRAPHER, hands and homeless, 1960s - Lot 278
IVAN FARKAS - PHOTOGRAPHER, hands and homeless, 1960s 2 photographs by Ivan Farkas, silver prints on vintage cartoline paper Stamps (including photographer's) and annotations on backs Dimensions: 30 x 23.5 cm approx. each Slight folds, corners corroded Note: Photographs by Ivan Farkas, devoted to hand studies and scenes depicting the homeless, dating from the 1960s. Farkas's images, with their tight framing and marked human dimension, are akin to humanist photography, attentive to the gestures, faces and living conditions of marginalized people in urban spaces. Hands, often used as expressive motifs in photography, become here a central element of composition and visual narrative. These prints testify to post-war photography's interest in social realities and the sensitive representation of individuals within the city.
