Harry Callahan was one of the most respected and influential American photographers of the modern era. He wasa master of traditional genres such as portraiture, landscape, architecture and nature studies, but also experimentedwith new ways of using the medium. One of Callahan’s favorite themes was the repeating pattern, whetherin multiple reeds reflected on a lake‘s surface or the rows of windows on a building‘s facade. While lesser knownthan some of his other work, Callahan’s collages demonstrate an intense interest in and profound understanding ofthe process of photographic seeing. His collages are rigorous yet playful explorations of a visual world created in hisstudio. The subject is either faces cut from magazines or rectangles cut from black or white paper. Callahan thenphotographed the collages pinned to his studio wall on his 8x10 inch view camera, one leading to the next to createthis never before published series.
