Leo Rubinfien
Leo Rubinfien, who was my teacher, became a knight of the New Color movement in America in the late 1970s. From his home in New York, he travelled the cities of the world, finding expressions of himself in the wanderings of countless other people, whom he looked at sideways while sitting on an airplane, from across the breakfast room in some big hotel, or from the window of a passing train. In the volumes "A Map of the East" and "Wounded Cities," he accompanied the photographs with writings that are themselves done in a photographic style.
The present exhibition here at Kurenboh and the text "The Ardbeg" began as part of his large, unfinished project "In the World City," but came to stand by themselves as the starting point of a new project in which, after more than three decades, Rubinfien has finally begun to work in his own city, New York.
