All about… the inadvertent success of Saul Leiter

"I've never been overwhelmed with a desire to become famous," painter and photographer Saul Leiter once said. "It's not that I didn't want to have my work appreciated, but for some reason—maybe it's because my father disapproved of almost everything I did—in some secret place in my being was a desire to avoid success." It took seventy years, but Leiter's subconscious desire for obscurity has been blown to smithereens. "Taxi" (1957) is reproduced from All about Saul Leiter, the subtle but thorough new overview from RM & Seigensha.
