The present photograph, entitled ‘Artists’ Quarter in SoHo’ by Erwin Fieger was shot in 1992and is part of the series titled ‘Photo-notes of New York’ in which the German photographer captured the zeitgeist of the American metropolis. Here he photographed two men standing in front of a wall covered with posters in Manhattan’s contemporary art hot spot SoHo. From the 1950s onwards Fieger traveled around the world and compiled an extensive oeuvre of photographs, which are now regarded as ‘monuments of color photography’ and some of which were published in books. The present work is a first print from the estate of the photographer.
The photograph is in very good condition. On the back the work is titled, dated, signed and inscribed ‘In Soho New York 1992 E. Fieger / 1. Abzug‘ in black felt-tip pen. The dimensions are 100 x 150 cm.
