Ghosts in the machine
anonymous photographs
The most prolific and the most eclectic artists of the 20th century are unknown photographers.
In the last 15 years a number of collectors have acquired remarkable collections of amateur photographs. These images discarded for unknown reasons have sometimes found a home where their failures become successes and the moments which they record have assumed an importance because of the discerning eye of their rescuer.
