Description
Binder of Fong Chow photographs. Binder: 9 inches x 11.5 inches. This lot is a binder of more than 25 original photographs by Fong Chow, from the Estate of Fong Chow, NYC.
Davids notes: Fong Chow was a ceramicist, curator of art at the Metropolitan Museum, photographer, and artist. His online interview of his life and work is at the Smithsonian Museum of American Art, and available on the internet.
This binder has photographs Chow took of his own ceramic works, photos of China, his experimental photography, as well as articles about related topics, etc.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I removed 5 photos and looked on the back.There were notations sometimes that Fong made, year and location,etc, no stamps or signatures.I didn't check all of them but I assume they are all like that.We purchased the contents of the Fong Chow estate directly from Fong Chow's niece after Christies removed alot of items, so the provenance is solid, but if you want stamps or signatures, I don't think he marked his photos that way.We can provide a gallery letter to go along with the lot, stating that the provenance is genuine if anyone wants one.David Killen
