Synopsis

A glance through Abe Frajndlich's portfolio of portraits is like a stroll down Hollywood Boulevard's hall of fame, but with a twist. The subjects of his photographs, among them movie stars, film directors, rock 'n roll legends, artists and other creative personalities speak to the viewer through symbols and stance - sometimes humorous, always unexpected: the actor Jack Lemmon holds two lemons where his eyes should be; Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein peers warily over a paint-brush moustache. Abe Frajndlich asks his subjects to present themselves in a personal manner, encouraging them to give the viewer a chance to glimpse the complexity of their characters. By so doing he opens a window on their public lives, while taking their portraits in an intimate manner. The portraits are of: Jack lemmon; Tom Wolfe; Roy Lichtenstein; Yoko Ono; Andy Warhol; Jenny Holzer; Leo Castelli; Billy Wilder to name a few.
