Saul Leiter joins In-Public

Saul Leiter
Everyone at In-public is excited to welcome Saul Leiter to our slowly growing ‘Masters’ section. Quite simply the colour street photographs of Saul Leiter are both humbling and inspiring to all of us. Saul was an early practitioner of colour photography, he has a unique vision and his photographs have soul.
We would like to thank Margit Erb for her enthusiasm in making this portfolio possible. Margit works at the Howard Greenberg Gallery in New York and is also a trusted assistant to Saul.
Welcome Saul, it’s a pleasure to show your work here.

David Gibson / Edinburgh 2003
Underground in London
Friday 24 February 2012
Three photographers including David Solomons consider the concept of underground – all of the exhibited images were taken underground, be it in basements, cellars, or on the tube.
Underground reveals the photographers’ view on what lies beneath. David Solomons uses colour with a flash to illuminate the dark interiors of one of the oldest urban networks – the London underground. Gesche Würfel explores how superintendents decorate their work and living spaces in the basements of apartment buildings in New York. And Dylan Thomas depicts inanimate objects in unrecognisable and unfamiliar spaces.

Paul Russell and George Kelly join In-public
Friday 19 February 2010

image: Paul Russell

image: George Kelly
In-Public is delighted to welcome two new members to the group. We’ve long been fans of the humorous seaside observations of talented Bournemouth (UK) photographer Paul Russell, and the classical b/w street scenes of George Kelly from Portland, Oregon.
This brings to 20 the number of In-Public street photographers who’ll be helping us celebrate our 10th anniversary by showing their work at London’s Photofusion Gallery in Brixton, London, between the 27th May and the 10th July 2010.
A Very Odd Campaign
Sunday 20 April 2008

As street photographers, we naturally share the concerns felt by many in the photographic community about the recent anti-terror poster campaign from the Metropolitan Police in London.
The campaign has created considerable confusion, and not a little anger. But it’s important to remember that the law regarding filming and taking photographs in public spaces has not changed. There are no restrictions on taking photographs on public land and in public spaces in the UK.
However, the campaign highlights a shifting attitude towards photography in public spaces, and threatens to taint photographers everywhere. Of course public safety is a legitimate concern, but there’s nothing ‘odd’ or necessarily suspicious about taking photographs. And given the varying interpretations of ‘odd’ behavior different people will have, it’s difficult to see the campaign leading to much more than a slew of misguided reports, a lot of wasted police time, and increased harassment for innocent photographers.
Photographing in public places is a basic freedom. We need to monitor these sorts of developments very carefully, and when necessary speak out.

Manifesto
In-Public was set up in 2000 to provide a home for Street Photographers.
Our aim is to promote Street Photography and to continue to explore its possibilities, we are a non commercial collective. All the photographers featured here have been invited to show their work because they have the ability to see the unusual in the everyday and to capture the moment. The pictures remind us that, if we let it, over-familiarity can make us blind to what’s really going on in the world around us.
