Vivian Maier - Her Discovered Work
“She was a Socialist, a Feminist, a movie critic, and a tell-it-like-it-is type of person. She learned English by going to theaters, which she loved. She wore a men’s jacket, men’s shoes and a large hat most of the time. She was constantly taking pictures, which she didn’t show anyone.”
Jindrich Štyrský
Peggy Guggenheim (1898-1979) was as well known for her private life as for her art collection. To mention a few highlights of her illustrious history, she was a central figure in the Paris art world from 1922 onwards. Her circle of friends included writers and avant-garde artists. The photo below was taken in 1924 by the experimental artist Man Ray, who is now known as a quintessential figure of photography.
