Swimming with the Razorfishes

Saturday, April 30, 2005

Very exciting: The Metropolitan Museum has Charles Sheeler's and Paul Strand's short film, Manhatta, available online. Punctuated by lines from Whitman's Leaves of Grass, the Sheeler and Strand used the film to introduce European avant-garde cinema to the United States.

Strand, of course, was a wonderful photographer in his own right.
