New to the gallery is a physicist from the faculty of the
University of Minnesota. Norton grew up in Los Angeles and started photographing with his mother’s camera at the age of 10.He built his own enlarger and became the official photographer for his high school. After an early start in photography, he earned a PhD in physics from Harvard and spent a year in Cambridge, England on a fellowship. He has traveled widely, never without his camera, and has wonderful images from many interesting places. Like the others represented by our gallery, Norton’s work is traditional and he does his own darkroom work. I think you will enjoy the romantic way in which he views his subjects.

Edouard Boubat started photographing after World War II, in 1946. "Because I know war... because I know the horror, I don't want to add to it. .........After the war, we felt the need to celebrate life, and for me photography was the means to achieve this..." Spanning over fifty years, Edouard's photographs do just this. They celebrate life. Perhaps more famous in France than in the United States, his work is becoming increasingly well known here. His works have been published in many books and we can obtain any of the images from these books if we have an adequate description. |

Argueabley the most famous photographer of his generation, Henri Cartier Bresson passed away in 2004. A quote from one of his books best describes his work," For me, the camera is a sketch book, an instrument of intuition and spontaneity, the master of the instant which in visual terms, questions and decides simultaneously. In order to give meaning to the world,one must feel involved in what one singles out through the view finder." Cartier Bresson has been dubbed by his peers, "the master of the moment" and his work described as"The Decisive Moment." |

Willy Ronis was born at the foot of Montmatre on August 14, 1910. He learned photography in his father's workshop and has been an accomplished photographer all of his life. He has been awarded prizes so numerous that it is impossible to note them all. In 1983, in the presence of the Minister of Culture, he donated a collection of his work, including all negatives, to the City of Paris. When viewing Ronis' work we see a combination of both gift and preparation. His photography does not concern itself with any of the intellectual interpretations of the more modern conceptual photography, but with the activity of life, beckoning the viewer to become part of the scene by the sheer unpretentious honesty of his compositions. In short, Willy Ronis' photographs invariably make you feel good, about yourself, about the world, about life. |

Janine Niepce is one of the disappearing generation of French photographers who photographed from the 50's on and she is one of the few women to "make it" in what was considered a man's world. Her photographs of rural France, as well as of Paris, are tender and compelling. This is the first time that her photographs have been exhibited in the United States and the reaction has been more than we could ever have anticipated. |

From 1938 to 1947, Wright Morris produced remarkable photographs in conjunction with his books. His clarity of line and classic style is often reminiscent of the great depression era photographers. Awarded a number of Guggenheim Fellowships in photography, his work is brilliant and extremely sensitive. The emotional impact of a Wright Morris print is equalled only by the text which usually accompanies it.
Wright Morris passed away in April 1998 at the age of 88. He is mourned by both the literary and the photographic world as an icon of his times. His work is represented in every major museum collection in the country. When Wright Morris passed away, America lost a piece of itself. His photographs will continue to reminds us of our past and the fiber of which we Americans are made.Most of Morris' work now resides at the University of Arizona in Tucson. Never a prolific printer, his images are rare and hard to find. Photogenesis is fortunate to represent the images left in the estate, as well as possessing a sizable collection of its own. Due to the changing availability, please call for pricing. |
