CULTUREEDIT AUCTION #3
George Platt Lynes
Photographer George Platt Lynes enriched creative life in New York City in the 1930s and 1940s with his ambitious and multifaceted art. To be photographed by Lynes was to enter a world of refined style, liberated desire, and artistic possibility. A self-taught craftsman of the medium and an intuitive master of studio lighting, he created thousands of images both for commercial use and private consumption, imbuing each with love and candor. His image repertoire, which is long overdue for consideration in its fullness, has since exerted an undeniable influence on subsequent generations of artists and on various trajectories of American visual culture.
