"... These photographs are among the best work by Callahan. They are neither picturesque nor sentimental, do not permit distraction but compel close attention to the natural object..." Sherman Paul
Callahan (1912-199) was widely respected in the photography community for his open mind and experimental attitude, qualities reinforced by his association with Moholy-Nagy and the principles of Bauhaus design. (International Center of Photography)
