Description: Master photographer Paul Caponigro has spent a lifetime exploring the natural world and architectural forms from antiquity. His vision has roots in Paul Strand's response to the purity of forms, and in the metaphysical/metaphorical tradition of Minor White, but Caponigro mostly finds his inspiration in nature. His printing reflects a heightened sensitivity toward gray tonalities, rather than the impact of strong blacks and whites. Caponigro's photographs always suggest deeper meanings. Whether the subject is a landscape, a solitary apple, or a ring of standing stones, his photographs invoke the promise of growth and regeneration mingled with timelessness. Paul Caponigro was born in Boston in 1932. He was already working as a photographer when he first traveled to the western United States in 1953 as a soldier during the Korean War. During his army tour of duty in San Francisco he met and studied with teachers and students of the West Coast School of Photography, including Minor White. During these years he published his photographs in Aperture magazine and exhibited at the George Eastman House. In 1966 Caponigro was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship which enabled him to travel to Ireland where began his lifelong interest photographing megalithic sites. In 1976 he made his classic photograph of running white deer titled, "County Wicklow, Ireland." Signed. Copyright Paul Caponigro 1964. Price and availability subject to change.
