Недавно, в издательстве Steidl, вышла трехтомная ретроспектива Брюса Дэвидсона “Outside Inside”, в связи с чем в прессе были опубликованы заметки, ссылки на некоторые из которых я собрал здесь, себе “на память”. Дэвидсон находится в ранге одного из столпов западной фотографии, поэтому трехтомник, наверное, получился очень серьезный (здесь можно посмотреть некоторые фотографии Дэвидсона, ну и на сайте агентства Магнум, конечно), а какую-нибудь заметку я переведу потом.

Brooklyn Gang (1959) Bruce Davidson
Outside Inside by Bruce Davidson
This retrospective by the Magnum photographer is an epic chronicle of postwar America
In his short but illuminating introduction to this epic three-volume retrospective of his work, Bruce Davidson recalls the pivotal moments in a career that stretches over 50 years. In 1943, aged 10, in Oak Park, Illinois, he visited a darkroom in his friend’s house and was lost “in boyhood wonderment” at the mysterious process he witnessed. He went home and turned a cupboard into a makeshift darkroom. http://www.guardian.co.uk/>>
Outside Inside

Steidl
Over the course of his long career Bruce Davidson has travelled the world making reportage stories both on assignment as a member of the Magnum agency and on subjects of personal interest. A few years ago he returned to his archive of negatives housed in a room in his Manhattan apartment and began a ritual of revisiting each and every one of the stories he had made, from his work as a student in 1954 to his urban landscapes in Los Angeles in 2009. Printing in his darkroom alongside the archive, he began to elaborate a very personal http://www.steidlville.com/>>

‘They treated me like an invisible man,” Bruce Davidson told me. “I was a shadow.”
He was sitting in the living room of a large, tony Upper West Side apartment building with a courtyard — the fruit of a long and very distinguished career in American photography — and was talking about something that happened more than a half century ago. In 1959, he spent 11 months shooting a stunning portfolio of the members of a Brooklyn gang called the Jokers, producing one of the first full-immersion photo essays about an American youth subculture. He remembers it well, and not entirely happily: “They were 15, 16 years old, Polish and Irish kids. They were abandoned, there was nothing for them, they were very poor, they came from alcoholic families.” Davidson was young, too: he was 25 when he first contacted the gang, a Jewish kid from Illinois, slightly built and both unassuming and bold, who’d moved to the city to take pictures, heard about a rumble out near Prospect Park and went to see what he could see.
