DUANE MICHALS/ FOTO FOLLIES. HOW PHOTOGRAPHY LOST ITS VIRGINITY. ON THE WAY TO THE BANK

Of this satirical look at contemporary photography, Duane Michals has said, The more serious you are, the sillier you have to be. I have a great capacity for foolishness. Its essential. Whether parodying Wolfgang Tillmans or Andres Serrano, Sherrie Levine (A Duan e Michals Photograph of a Sherrie Levine Photograph of a Walker Evans Photograph) or Cindy Sherman (Who is Sydney Sherman?), Michals uses his ferocious wit and keen eye to create images at once humorous and penetrating.
