Which for me, proves that the old guy was a lot better than the young guy who sees himself as the real deal.

A thoughtful surrealist, I think. His work also seemed kinder, or respectful, in contrast to his contemporaries. Wonderful photographer and artist.

Thanks for the link, it was an overdue re-appreciation of Ketesz.

The book, Kertesz (Hazan edition), is a classic. ...excellent overview of K's photography from the 1920s up to the 70s (including the SX-70 pictures). The book is thorough and the reproductions are outstanding.
