NEW YORK, NY -- Doyle's auction of Photographs on Thursday, June 11, 2020 at 10am offers a wide range of materials, including fine art, early photography, such as travel albums and daguerreotypes, and photographic literature.
Teaching first at the ”New Bauhaus” – Chicago’s Institute of Design – and later at RISD, Harry Callahan (1912-1999) influenced several generations of photographers. One of a series of experimental collages he undertook in the 1950s, this work juxtaposes hundreds of clippings from magazines in an abstract composition of great complexity. It predates, and was likely an influence on, the photocollages of artists such as Ray Metzker, Callahan’s protége (est. $4,000-6,000).
