The American photographer Ray Metzker died on October 9th. He was know for his cityscape and lanscape photography.
I know of no other modern photographer who pursued his medium with as much versatility and diversity as Ray Metzker. With over 15 distinct bodies of work made over 60 years, plus the random masterpiece made during winter months when he worked mostly indoors, Ray repeatedly took his chosen medium into unknown territory. The names he chose for his series convey this journey: Wispies, Couplets, Arrestations, Sand Creatures, Composites, Pictus Interruptus, Feste di Foglie, Sojourn, Wanderings, and Autowackies, to name a few.
