Visual Memories and Hidden Places (Fine Press Edition)

Paul Caponigro

To see into a Paul Caponigro photograph is to look into the universe. The speed of time has slowed to light winking on a pebble, drops of water revealing a granite contour, a blade of grass; feast in the joy of nature’s bounty. The basic elements, rocks, trees, water, life, birth, death, regeneration, stripped down to essential black and white elements of photography—light, chemistry and alchemy. The city has steel, concrete and hard edges; the country has softness, touch it with your eyes—to see it as Caponigro does you must look beyond the tree trunk and see around to the other side.

—Andrew Smith, Tucson, March 2021
