Charles H. Traub.






Charles H. Traub. By Charles H. Traub, text by Marvin Heiferman. Gitterman Gallery, 2006. 40pp., illustrated throughout, 10,5x9,25". Images from here.

Book description:

"Charles H. Traub once used a lens shade one size too small for his square-format camera.

The vignetting caused by the mistake emphasized the intimate perspective of the photographer’s vision.

The square format and proximity to his subjects charged his images with an immediacy that celebrated the character of the times [the 1970s]."
