Description
Born in 1932 in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, Duane Michals has become best known for his compelling narrative sequences, including “The Voyage of the Spirit After Death,” “Paradise Regained,” and “The Fallen Angel.” His work reflects a haunting obsession with life and death, fantasy and reality — thematic opposites expressed through his use of double exposures, superimposed images, props, mirrors, and the ambiguous notations that often appear on the margins of the photographs.
