Description from the seller
"Forever Saul Leiter" is a work dedicated to the oeuvre of photographer Saul Leiter, a pioneer of color photography. Published by Éditions Textuel, this book presents a collection of images capturing the vibrant streets of New York, taken between the 1950s and the early 2000s. His impressionist approach to color and his fragmented compositions, often achieved through reflections and bold framing, give his photographs a unique and poetic atmosphere. After Saul Leiter's death in 2013, the Saul Leiter Foundation undertook research and conservation work, revealing more than 80,000 unpublished works. Forever Saul Leiter contains a precious selection of these shots never published before, offering an unprecedented and intimate look into the photographer's universe. This book has become a rare and sought-after item for collectors and photography enthusiasts. Because of its limited publication and the immense popularity of Leiter's work, it is difficult to find. It thus constitutes an essential collectible for anyone passionate about author photography and the unique aesthetic of Saul Leiter.
