It was a nice Sunday in NYC and we went to the International Center of Photography. There were a number of interesting exhibits there but the one that got my attention was by Miroslav Tichư. All the gear heads on this forum (myself included) should see the cameras and other stuff he used to take pictures. To call his equipment junk gives junk a bad name. As an example, he took pieces of plastic and polished lenses out of it using toothpaste. Yet despite the fact that he used trash to assemble cameras that he then used to take street photos, he made some arresting shots. The movie about him and his art is pretty amazing. I recommend the ICP to anyone who finds themselves in NYC.
Cheers,
Dave B.
