I've read your blog for years, but only felt the need to comment now: wow. Fantastic work. I have no idea if it has any meaning behind it, but the power of each pair and what it says about Vivian Maier is amazing.
ReplyDeleteAll but one pair has Vivian's imagery pre-date it's more recognized neighbor. Did this happen by chance during your research?
ReplyDeleteI tried to make all the Maier photos predate their partners but HCB screwed it up. Oh well. One possible lesson is that she was looking for this stuff on her own, before she'd seen it in other photos. Or the alternative view is if you take enough photos, some subjects are bound to match. Her work is impressive to me, nonetheless.
