Stephen Daiter Gallery offers fine contemporary and vintage examples of important American and European photography from the 20th- and 21st-centuries.
"Focusing on classic 20th century experimental and social documentary photography, Stephen Daiter Gallery has a particular expertise on the Photo League in New York (1936-1951) and the early years of The Institute of Design in Chicago (1937-1967).
Kenneth Josephson was among the first generation of photographers to receive a graduate degree in photography from The Institute of Design, Chicago (1960). Studying with Aaron Siskind and Harry Callahan, he is recognized as an early pioneer in conceptual photography and remains an active, influential image maker. This photograph was made shortly after he graduated from the ID and began teaching at the Art Institute of Chicago." - Stephen Daiter
