“[Bullock’s images] are inexhaustible, they just go on and on, each viewing

(and I have looked into some of them for upwards of an

hour at a stretch, completely immersed, and that’s rare)

leads me further and further into them. . . . There’s such

an abundance of treasures I want to weep for joy.”

—A.D .COLEMAN

“In every photograph of this country which

Wynn Bullock has taken, there is present a note of

gratitude for the privilege of being alive and seeing the

world, not as a machine, not as a drudge, not as a professional, but as a

dreamer divinely possessed.”

—HENRY M I L L ER

PHOTOJOURNALISM AND DOCUMENTARY

Bronx BoysB Y S T E P H E N S H A M E S

Text by Martin Dones and José “Poncho” Muñoz

“The Bronx has a terrible beauty, stark and harsh, like the desert. At first glance you imagine nothing

can survive. Then you notice life going on all around. People adapt, survive, and even prosper in this urban

moonscape of quick pleasures and false hopes. . . . Often I am terrified of the Bronx. Other times it feels

like home. My images reflect the feral vitality and hope of these young men. The interplay between good and

evil, violence and love, chaos and family, is the theme, but this is not documentation. There is no story line.

There is only a feeling.”—STEPHEN SHAMES

“Other collections of lost souls (Richard Avedon’s In the American West comes to mind) are different. . . we meet O’Brien’s people one on one. Their ‘otherness’ is removed. The

photographs engender compassion and empathy. If that sounds simple, it is because it is simple. And, as you know, being simple is very, very difficult. Hard Ground is a rare
