Paul Fusco ~ RFK~

While at work in early spring 2008 I was researching art online and I came across Danziger Projects where I fell in love with photographer Paul Fusco’s work. Most notably, the RFK series.

I got so excited that without reading his bio or doing any other research on the artist, I posted this about the photo below {which is my favorite}.

Going back to www.danzigerprojects.com to view more artists, I found the word BLOG and immediately clicked for more. I had entered The Year In Pictures, a world of art which I was {and still am} not totally familiar with, photography, and have returned every day since {where I quite positively have left some ridiculously stupid comments} lol.

Then one afternoon I logged on to find that I was featured on The Year in Pictures here and then again HERE in a post titled “Cute” for my Tinkerbell Halloween costume.

And because I was so “Cute” I was rewarded this fantastic book as a prize!

Not only the BOOK, but signed and inscribed by Paul Fusco himself {quoting a comment I made about being IN LOVE with his works!!!}

I just adore this series of photographs and would love to hang a couple in my future house. They really have a way of capturing the mood of the time and although sad, I want to be there, watching and waving as the train passed by.

Thank you James Danziger and Mr. Paul Fusco. I am so honored to own this book and hopefully someday a couple of actual prints to hang on my wall.
