One more day until “Eugene Richards: The Run-On of Time” opens at the #ICPMuseum! This image recalls classic street photography in the lyricism of the child’s spontaneous gesture, juxtaposed with abraded advertising for Wonder Bread. The slogan’s promise of building “Strong Bodies 12 Ways” suggests both the irony and the enduring humanity of the gritty atmosphere of the neighborhood where Richards grew up. The asymmetrical composition, its space slightly distorted with the use of a wide- angle lens, conveys the instantaneity of the moment. On view September 27, 2018–January 6, 2019.Tickets: https://bit.ly/2rYvSsb Wonder Bread, Dorchester, Massachusetts, 1975 -- source link
