"Anything and all things are photographs. A photograph can only look like how the camera saw what was photographed. Or, how the camera saw the piece of time and space is responsible for how the photograph looks. Therefore, a photograph can look any way. Or, there's no way a photograph had to look (beyond being an illusion of a literal description). Or, there are no external or abstract or preconceived rules of design that can apply to still photographs. I like to think of photographing as a two-way act of respect. Respect for the medium, by letting it do what it does best, describe. And respect for the subject, by describing it as it is. A photograph must be responsible to both." - Garry Winogrand, Austin, TX, 1974, from Steidl's gorgeous new slipcased edition presenting the four portfolios of Lee Friedlander and Burt Wolf's historic press, Double Elephant. "Albuquerque, New Mexico" (1958) is © The Estate of Garry Winogrand, courtesy Fraenkel Gallery, San Francisco and Galerie Thomas Zander, Cologne.
