Arrivals & Departures: The Airport Pictures of Garry Winogrand

It's just wonderful to see the comings and goings of ordinary people candidly portrayed by a photographer as skilled as Garry Winogrand. The photograghs date from the 1950s to the 1980s with most from the 1970s and 1980s. My how airports and styles have changed. Most of the photograghs are of people in U.S. airports but you'll also see Paris and Marseilles. Among U.S. airports, the majority are from NYC but also Salt Lake City, San Francisco and Los Angeles among others. One of my favorite photographs is of a business man in suit and an old style business hat speaking with obvious pleasure on a pay phone (remember pay phones?).

Garry Winogrand: Public Relations

I love "Man in the Crowd", "1964", and "The Animals'", and have yet to see some of his other work, but this one (mostly) leaves me cold. There just aren't the stories going on in the pictures like in his other work, and there isn't the same haphazard grace of composition either. Get ANYTHING else of his first.

Garry Winogrand: The Animals

by: John Szarkowski
Winogrand has a good sense of humour and his time spent in the zoo with his kids was put to good use. Much more interesting than the airports book but for me Figments from the Real World rocks harder...It's not expensive so worth putting in the collection!

Stock Photographs: The Fort Worth Fat Stock Show and Rodeo

by: Garry Winogrand
After this book and the work was published, Winogrand was no longer welcome in the state of Texas. Pick it up and you'll see why. It reveals a bunch of beady eyed bubbas and bubettes enjoying The Fort Worth Stock show, all presented as archetypes of the Texas myth. You'll cringe, you'll laugh, but the only way to do that is to buy this book.
