Speaking of the threw subjects he strives to pro tray with his photography, from he book "Ben Shan Photographer" by Margaret R. Weiss.
"Aloneness; the impossibility to communicate with each other, which accounts for the aloneness; and thirdly, the sort of indestructible spirit of man to keep on going beyond the time when he thinks it would be impossible to arrive anywhere."
"I paint or photograph for two reasons--either because I like certain events, things or people with great intensity or because I dislike others with equal intensity."
Love this portrait of Mr. Shahn, he looks so determined, like nothing will stop him from achieving his goals.
