I was never a massive fan of Helen Levitt’s work, but I always trusted Philip Perkiss and he often referred to “Helen’s” work as if we all knew her. She was one of the few people he did this with, I first thought. However I now remember him talking about Gary…. These few images are the first I found, and I like them, so I should probably revisit her work. I’m sure her death will get some press, as she was a well regarded photographer whose work was instrumental in the growth of photography as a respected art form.
