Back to Black & White @ MOLAA

____________________________________________________________________________________
 
Photography of Manuel Carrillo












Texiutlan, Puebla
(1971)








Apam, Hidalgo
(1973)










Hello, Eleanor *
(1960)






















MANUEL CARRILLO
(1906-1989)













Exhibit ends November 30, 2014





* The title of the third photograph was self-imposed due to a feline
inter-connectivity between the black cat in Puerta Vallarta, Jalisco
and her alter ego in Katonah, New York.

The page is entitled BACK TO BLACK & WHITE because two
previous pages featured color photographs from  the zip code
adjacent to the Museum of Latin American Art (90802).  

At the museum today, everything was looked at  twice,
once for me and once for Mrs. CarPeo.

Manuel Carrillo moved to New York in 1922.
He became a tango champion and lived there
for eight years. During that time period,
no novelist was better acquainted
with the New York art scene
than Dawn Powell.

If Mr. Carrillo did not inspire at least  one character
from a Dawn Powell novel, I will eat my sombrero!
