Front Porch, Durham, North Carolina, Margaret Sartor, selenium toned silver gelatin print
A black and white photograph of one the two towers of the Brooklyn bridge in New York city. A small portion of the tower is visible to the right side of the photograph, the remaining frame of the photo focuses on the suspension cables. The larger thick main cable comes out from the top, with the tower, with relatively thinner cables cascade downwards diverging from the point of origin towards the unseen bridge deck in this photograph. The mix of diagonal cables vertical ties coming down from the main cables create a see through checkered effect.
Cut-out and painted wood with star, kangaroo(?), and white cat.
Untitled, from the series Hitler Moves East, David Levinthal, gelatin silver print on Kodalith paper
