Roots present in things appear to you in the flow of views and perspectives. Visions of feeling…

Born in Brooklyn in 1922, Stettner began working as a photographer in the 1930s…
An angel exalted by the fire of androgynous desire disguise the being to avoid the worst: naked the truth of the genre cries it out because a doubt remains. Every king crumbles behind his ghost. The queen goes astray in the same way. The first must be made up as an Elizabethan whore and the second as a mystery. Confused at having lost his way among men, the being can…
