PROVENANCE

---

fun fact: 
Davidson’s photographs of Spanish Harlem were used as evidence of squalid housing conditions in claims against New York City.

digital description: 
Davidson spent two years photographing in Spanish Harlem, attempting to integrate himself into the daily lives of its residents. In the past he had used a 35mm camera, but here he turned to a large-format, 4 x 5-inch camera, which requires a tripod and slows down the act of photographing, making the session more of a shared experience, a give and take.
