Simpson Kalisher (American, born 27 July 1926) is an American photojournalist and street photographer.

Early life

Simpson Kalisher was born on 27 July 1926 in The Bronx, New York City,[1] the youngest son of Sheva and Ben Kalisher and brother of Fay and Murray. They were living in Barnes Avenue in 1939. After one year of college, Kalisher was drafted into the military aged 18 in October 1944 for WW2 and was admitted to military hospital briefly in August 1945. He served in the U.S Army, 1944-46 and was decorated with the Combat Infantryman's Badge.

Photographer

Commercial work

After the war Kalisher undertook a BA in History at Indiana University Bloomington, in 1948. He set up as a commercial photographer freelancing for Scope Associates whose clients included Texas Co. in the oil industry of the Kalispell area,[2] and one of his pictures, taken for the company pre-1954, of two women in frilly aprons backlit and chatting at the gate of a house, was chosen by Edward Steichen for MoMA's world-touring The Family of Man, seen by 9 million visitors. His professional work was recognised at age 49 with a gold medal in 1975 for a Cabot Corporation annual report in the Editorial category of The 21st annual exhibition of the Art Directors Club of Boston.[3] A later client, in 1980 when Kalisher was in his fifties, was the Salvation Army for whom he produced a series of gritty vignettes for their magazine advertisements.[4]

Independent documentary projects

Kalisher is better known for his independent projects, including his street photography made mostly in New York City, which he published in book form, exhibited, and which were included in major Museum of Modern Art surveys including The Family of Man (1955) and Mirrors and Windows: American Photography Since 1960 (1978).[5][6]

Kalisher's 1961 book, Railroad Men: A Book of Photographs and Collected Stories with 44 duotone plates of men at work on trains and in railway yards in a period of decline for that form of transport, was produced from pictures for an unpublished magazine assignment. He funded the project himself and used a Leica and tape recorder. The photographs were accompanied by 44 interviews recorded by the photographer.[7][8][9] The series has been shown frequently and is in the collections of a number of major American museums.

Kalisher followed Railroad Men with two more photographic books, Propaganda and Other Photographs (1976)[10] and The Alienated Photographer (2011),[11] the contents of which were also exhibited.

Kalisher was listed in a document with other photographers Garry Winogrand, Hans Namuth, Harry Callahan, Roy De Carava, amongst numbers of artists and musicians as attending a public meeting of the National Committee for a SANE Nuclear Policy in Madison Square Garden on 19 May 1960. The document was used in the 1960 Senate inquiry "Communist Infiltration in the Nuclear Test Ban Movement.[12] In 1974, by contrast, he is identified as "the internationally famed photographer" for his picture of Litchfield County's Shepaug River used to illustrate the Senate Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs Amend the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act document (part 4) to show its "scenic beauty of and the dramatic action of its clear, unspoiled water."[13] Kalisher was then living in Roxbury, near Shepaug River.

Portraits

Kalisher photographed several significant people including poet Reuel Denney, philosopher Marshall McLuhan and anthropologist Margaret Mead.[14]

Reception

Reviewing Railroad Men in 1962 curator Hugh Edwards likened it to the work of Lewis Hine, Walker Evans, and W. Eugene Smith, as promoting “those ancient qualities, human dignity and character.”[15]

In a review of Kalisher's show at the Art Institute of Chicago, Edith Weigle wrote

“Kalisher's pictures are art because they are direct, honest, and powerful. They are powerful because of the photographer's ability to get at the essentials and to comprehend and portray the character of each man. Nonessentials are stripped away. The only "special effects" are the deep shadows which are there by nature and the photographer's use of empty space, which seems innate.[16]

In reviewing Kalisher's retrospective at De Lellis Gallery in 2011, The New Yorker notes that his pictures “share a casually incisive style with Garry Winogrand’s, Tod Papageorge’s, and Joel Meyerowitz’s pictures of the city…but Kalisher worked primarily on the street, yielding photographs that are anecdotal and full of characters.” William Meyers reviewing the same show in the Wall Street Journal of 22 October 2011,[17] remarks on Kalisher's ability to make the ordinary, extraordinary;

"Simpson Kalisher ... is one of the street photographers who made midtown Manhattan as critical a site for mid-20th-century photography as the forest of Arden was for Shakespearean comedy. In a picture taken in 1959, the camera looks north up Fifth Avenue as the traffic light changes and a massed wave of pedestrians steps off the curb to cross West 51st Street. Nothing unusual is happening in this picture, there are no freaks or confrontations, but our eye keeps moving left to right and then right to left across the line of faces approaching us: The ordinariness of these people is quite stunning. The men and women look straight ahead as they march single-mindedly toward us and their destinations. It is not really us, of course, but Mr. Kalisher who is headed in the other direction."[17]

The highest price paid for a print by Kalisher at auction is US$1,875 for an untitled work made c.1949-1950, sold at Christie's New York in 2010.

Teaching and industry contributions

In 1962 Kalisher was elected alternate secretary of the American Society of Magazine Photographers.[18][19]

In September 1974 he was one of the presenters, with Jerry Uelsman, Beaumont Newhall, Joseph Costa, Lillian Bassman, and Bruce Davidson of a workshop, based on his book on New York City, in the University of Wisconsin Extension course, "Study with the Masters”[20] and in which he was described as “a professional photographer who has published in most of the major national magazines.”[21]

During a solo show of pictures from his book Propaganda and Other Photographs co-exhibited with Roy Stryker: The Humane Propagandist of photographs by a selection of the people who documented the New Deal programs under Roy Stryker, Kalisher delivered a lecture on 28 September 1978 on his work and its relationship to the tradition of photography as social literature[22]

He participated with other artists, and with art administrators, in the Consortium for the Arts and the Connecticut Commission on the Arts "Work Sessions" at Real Art Ways, 197 Asylum St., the fourth of the Art Jobs Il September Series of conferences around the state dealing with marketing of artwork, legal protections, and surviving in business.[23]

Also at The Farmington Valley Arts Center in Avon he conducted a portfolio review.[24]

Personal life and legacy

Kalisher's son Jesse, born on June 22, 1962, in New York, NY to Simpson and Ilse Kahn Kalisher (dec.) and after a career in advertising, also became a photographer,[25] and operated his own gallery. Jesse died in 2017.[26] Simpson Kalisher had retired to Delray Beach, Florida in 2013 and had previsouly lived in New York from 1950 to 1971, in Roxbury 1971-98, in Greenwich, Conn., 1998-2005 and again in NYC, 2005-13.

In 2006 he was recognised in the Remington Registry in which J. Alex Ficarra writes;

"New York is where the trends begin and Simpson was the tool that catapulted the trends across America. From model trains to exhibits to clothing magazines. From Times Square to Southampton Simpson made his mark felt and after a wonderful 50 plus year career his passion will never be forgotten. So on that note today Remington inducts a figurehead of the Manhattan skyline. Today Remington formally recognizes artist and photographer Simpson Kalisher. We offer him our highest honor and welcome his inclusion."[27]
