From the mid 1950s

through the early 1980s,

William Gedney photographed

throughout the United States,

in India, and in Europe.

 

From street scenes

outside his Brooklyn apartment

to the daily chores of unemployed coal miners,

from the indolent lifestyle of hippies in Haight-Ashbury

to the sacred rituals of Hindu worshippers,

Gedney recorded the lives of others

with remarkable clarity and poignancy.

Paul Kwilecki Photographs

 

Paul Kwilecki’s Photograph Collection

contains 583 black and white prints

made in and around

the town of Bainbridge, Georgia

from 1960-2008.

 

A self-taught photographer,

Kwilecki honed his craft

by photographing the broad spectrum of daily life

manifested in Bainbridge

and the rural areas of Decatur County.

 

From the Shade Tobacco workers in the fields

to the tombstones in the cemeteries

and the emotional dramas played out

in the Decatur County Courthouse,

Kwilecki documented everything

in an effort to capture and understand humanity.

 

The collection of primarily 11x14 inch prints

is organized into subject areas including:

agriculture, architecture, county fairs,

the Flint River, industry, neighborhoods,

the Prom, religious life, shoppers,

social events, stores, Willis Park and,

workers.

'Retronauting':

why we can't stop sharing old photographs

 

Vintage pictures shared online

by accounts such as Retronaut,

HistoryInPix and IndiaHistoryPic

capture moments gone for ever,

but as vividly as the here-and-now.

 

It's a heady mix of nostalgia and history

Library of Congress    USA

 

Carol M. Highsmith Archive    1980-2005

 

The online presentation

of the Carol M. Highsmith Archive

features photographs of landmark buildings

and architectural renovation projects

in Washington, D.C.,

and throughout the United States.

 

The first 23 groups of photographs

contain more than 2,500 images

and date from 1980 to 2005,

with many views in color

as well as black-and-white.

 

Extensive coverage of the Library of Congress

Jefferson Building was added in 2007.

 

The archive is expected to grow

to more than 100,000 photographs

covering all of the United States.

 

Highsmith,

a distinguished and richly published

American photographer,

has donated her work

to the Library of Congress since 1992.

 

Starting in 2002,

Highsmith provided scans

with new donations to allow rapid online access

throughout the world.

 

Her generosity in dedicating

the rights to the American people

for copyright free access

also makes this Archive

a very special visual resource.

New York's Photo League    USA    1936-1951

 

Sixty years ago this week,

the Photo League fell victim

to Cold War witch hunts and blacklists,

closing its doors

after 15 intense years of trailblazing

– and sometimes hell-raising –

documentary photography.

 

From unabashedly leftist roots,

the group influenced a generation of photographers

who transformed the documentary tradition,

elevating it to heady aesthetic heights.

The George Grantham Bain Collection

represents the photographic files

of one of America's earliest news picture agencies.

 

The collection richly documents

sports events, theater, celebrities, crime,

strikes, disasters, political activities

including the woman suffrage campaign,

conventions and public celebrations.

 

The photographs Bain produced

and gathered for distribution

through his news service

were worldwide in their coverage,

but there was a special emphasis

on life in New York City.

 

The bulk of the collection

dates from the 1900s to the mid-1920s,

but scattered images can be found

as early as the 1860s

and as late as the 1930s.

 

Available online are 39,744 glass negatives

and a selection of about 1,600 photographic prints

for which copy negatives exist.
