Homer Page at Howard Greenberg


Since it opened, in 1986, this gallery has been known for reviving the work of forgotten or overlooked photographers. Homer Page (1918-85) is the latest of these rediscoveries.

He has a lot in common with earlier ones (notably Leon Levinstein and Saul Leiter), including wit, grit, and an instinctive feel for the staccato rhythms and poetic passages of urban life. Page's show is devoted to the pictures he made on a Guggenheim Fellowship in New York in 1949—classic street work, full of spirit.
