The Genius of George Platt Lynes

It's time for our quarterly series on the genius of George Platt Lynes.  Slowly, but surely, more of his work is coming to light as time passes.  Today I will be posting some items that recently came to my attention and which I think are among his best.  We start with a self portrait with camera.

 

Different

This is my favorite of the day, simply because it is different . . . and beautiful.

 

Dance

Dance was a consistent theme in George Platt Lynes' work, and is shows up here.

 

Bulldog

Always ahead of his time, Mr. Lynes gives us the basic bulldog pose here.

 

Languid

 

When I thought of how to describe this one, only the word "languid" came to mind.

Shadow Reclining

Together

The lines, the curves, and the shadows all come together in this one.

 

Duality

My source says that these two photos were meant to be seen as a single work of art. George Platt Lynes did this a number of times, sometimes with two images and sometimes with three.

 

Different

The angle of approach and sort of industrial feel make this picture rather different.

 

Trio

The last image in today's series is one of those enigmatic group photos that bring forth a number of different emotions and possible relationships.  Mr. Lynes remains an artistic giant after all this time.

Cherokee Jackson

Here we see Everett Lee "Cherokee" Jackson.

 

Robert and Bill Rex

Although he took more photos of Robert Rex (left) than his brother Bill, Pat Milo seems to like them both quite a bit.  There's a famous picture of Mr. Milo grabbing Bill by the package.

 

Curt Parks

Pat Milo didn't take all that many full-on derriere shots,

but this one of Curt Parks is quite good.

 

Ray Roberds

Mr. Milo got a big smile from Ray Roberds in this odd photo

with an old fashioned settee and a modernist backdrop.

 

Tony Sabatino

We get a serious look from Tony Sabatino.

 

Emmett Schaeffer

I really like the lighting in this rather straightforward pose of Emmett Schaeffer.

Kip Behar

Closing the Pat Milo set with a photo of Kip Behar

that I somehow didn't post until now.
