The Visual Poetry of James Bleecker cont'd.

JamesBleeckerportrait

Well, James Bleecker set up a bit of

an e-mail correspondence with me.

He seems utterly pleasant and gracious.

For a bit more background he trained

at the Rhode Island School of Design.

He took top honours in his academic

work and for this he was awarded the Bo

Bernstein award.

He has done alot of important work for museums

and public collections as

well as his own fine art photography.

I have enclosed a few more of his photographs

including a picture of James himself.

His work to me looks like visual poems.

Some critical praise states:

"Bleecker's work is powerful and mature.
Technically perfect and rigorously composed,
his photographs reduce you to tears by
their beauty".

Edgar Munhall, Curator Emeritus, The Frick Collection

James Bleecker - Photographer

Today, I came across a new photographer.

Profiled on katie-d-i-d.blogspot.com

(05/11/09) his name is James Bleecker.

He is a 14th generation New Yorker.

Jame's work centres on New York

streetscapes, architecture and interiors.

To see his portfolio, he shoots in sepia

primarily, see his web-site at

http://www.jamesbleecker.com/.

He appears greatly talented and

above are 2 of the shots I favoured.

I especially responded to the shot of

the columns and the spray of leaves

on the left-hand corner of the image.

Have a stay-out-of-the-rain

kind of day.
