This latest FIFTY ONE publication unveils a series of recently discovered postcard-sized photographs by the Saul Leiter Foundation, many of which have never been shown before. This unique discovery inspired Roger Szmulewicz, founder of Gallery FIFTY ONE, to present these intimate and captivating works to a wider audience through this beautifully designed book. In Roger's own words: "When Margit Erb and Michael Parillo informed me that they had discovered an entire series of your photographs made on postcard-size paper, I immediately felt we had to create a book. Since your passing in 2013, working with your art allows me to feel that missed connection to you. Your artistry, showcased here in these little prints, captures the subtle beauty of everyday life. Each image tells a story, inviting viewers to pause and appreciate the fleeting beauty in the mundane. Your genius lies in your ability to find grace in the ordinary, crafting visual narratives that resonate on a deeply human level.” (-excerpt from the book’s introduction)
