DAVID LEVINTHAL (b. 1949), ‘Untitled (#18)’ (from Modern Romance series), 2000 Vintage SIGNED Polaroid SX-70 Time Zero PhotographUnique Polaroid photograph. Dimensions: 4″ x 4″ (3″ x 3-1/2″ image). SIGNED, dated ‘1985’ and annotated ‘#18’ in pencil in margin on recto. Excellent condition with no visible defects. Photo-cornered in black museum mat. American photographer David Levinthal re-stages historical events using toy figures, play sets, and other miniatures—often to unsettling effects. “Ever since I began working with toys,” the artist explains, “I have been intrigued with the idea that these seemingly benign objects could take on such incredible power and personality simply by the way they were photographed.” Hitler Moves East (1977)—Levinthal’s first book of photographs, produced in collaboration with the cartoonist Gary Trudeau—blurs the line between fact and fiction, employing a photojournalistic style to capture toy soldiers in action. Levinthal’s other tableaus similarly draw upon the American psyche, whether depicting the American West, baseball players at bat, fantasies of the pin-up girl, or narrative scenes from Uncle Tom’s Cabin.Known as a pioneer of the constructed photograph, David Levinthal has become an explorer of the darker side of the American psyche through his atmospheric tableaux. The artist’s Modern Romance series (1983-1985) is a watershed body of work. After staging and lighting tiny figures in miniature sets, Levinthal photographed them with a Polaroid Land Camera. The resulting photographs represent small but pregnant moments in a fictional urban narrative–people in hotel rooms, in diners, on the street. They evoke the nocturnal New York of Edward Hopper paintings, and the sexual tension of film noir. The protagonists are lonely urbanites, seemingly caught by surveillance techniques. Our sense of voyeurism is heightened by Levinthal’s canny use of Hopper’s window frame-within-a-frame compositions. Familiar in many ways, the depicted individuals are bathed in a light that leaves them unfocussed, suggesting the alienation that accompanies much city night-life. Sometimes the works are photographed from video screens, so that they become an image of an image, a hazy surface that suggests surveillance. Here, Levinthal echoes the distancing that has already been created by his use of models but elaborates it through the frame of our own voyeuristic vision. Levinthal’s is a bleak outlook that suggests the singularity of the individual urban experience, where the soul seems lost in darkness, impenetrable. Yet the weight of this feeling remains light in the recognition that the images are only fictions. Since the mid-1980’s Levinthal has increasingly used the 20 x 24 Polaroid camera to produce large-format photographs. His work pre-dates the rise of ‘postmodern photography,’ anticipating in important ways the work of artists such as Cindy Sherman, Laurie Simmons and James Casebere. David Levinthal has received numerous grants and awards including a Guggenheim fellowship and a NEA fellowship, and his work is held in more than 35 significant public collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, NY, the Whitney Museum of American Art, NY, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY, the Corcoran Gallery, Washington, DC and the Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris. Early last year, the Polaroid Corporation ceased producing its iconic film. October 9, 2009 will see the final “Use by” or Expiration date of the last batch of Polaroid film manufactured. The Polaroid or ‘one-step photography’ was invented by Edwin H. Land, founder of the Polaroid Corporation, in 1947. Land believed from the beginning that artistic inquiry was a critical element in the exploration of Polaroid products, recognising the importance of photographers experimenting with the medium to push Polaroid film to its limits. Land met Ansel Adams in 1948 and he became the first of several artist consultants hired to test the cameras and films. Adams wrote of Polaroid, “I think it promises to be one of the greatest steps in the development of photography”. The Polaroid SX-70 camera and instant film debuted in 1972.
