None of Leiter`s contemporaries, with the partial exception of Helen Levitt, assembled a comparable body of work: subtle, often abstract compositions of lyrical, eloquent colour.***************Steidl, Göttingen. Leiter continued to paint, exhibiting with Philip Guston and Willem de Kooning, but the camera remained his ever-present means of recording life in the metropolis. Leiter moved to New York in 1946 to become a painter, yet through his friendship with Richard Pousette-Dart he quickly recognized the creative potential of photography. Although Edward Steichen had exhibited some of Leiter`s colour photography at the Museum of Modern Art in 1953, it remained virtually unknown to the world thereafter. ![]() Overall near mint, near perfect condition!
