Lee Friedlander Friedlander's photographs were focused on "social landscape". They're black and white, many photos focus on signs and people (some focusing on shadow and buildings). Friedlander shows everyday people and places and explores what makes them art. His photos played a lot with light and shadows, in fact, many of his photographs centre around actual shadows. However, one of the most common technical themes he's done is using reflection. For instance he uses mirrors, windows, anything reflective. Friedlander was homebound at one point from arthritis, from that experience he was able to create a new narrative; by mainly focusing on his surroundings. He also liked to show the everyday conventional things (like people, and signs) and captured them, creating a beautiful picture out of the seemingly "ordinary". “Maria, New York City,” 1959.
