Résumé

When Tod Papageorge began this work, the newspapers saw Central Park chiefly as a site of danger and outrage, and they were doubtless partly right.

But the park shown here seems no more dangerous than life itself, and no less filled with beauty, charming incident, excess, jokes in questionable taste, unintended consequence, and pathos, truly described.

One might say that no artist has done so much for this piece of land since Frederick Law Olmstead.

John Szarkowski

L'auteur - Tod Papageorge

Tod Papageorge began to photograph in 1962 at the University of New Hampshire, shortly before he received a degree in English Literature. Since 1979 he has been the Walker Evans Professor of Photography at the Yale University School of Art, where, as the Director of Graduate Studies, he has taught and supervised the course of study of many of the strongest American photographers of the last twenty-five years. His work has been exhibited internationally, and is included in the collections of more than thirty major museums. In addition, he has written seminal essays on the American photographers Walker Evans, Robert Frank, Garry Winogrand, and Robert Adams.
