In A Third Look, Joseph Maida reflects on Lee Friedlander's nudes from the 1970&8217;s and 80&8217;s, reinterpreting this series as a cutting edge homage both to Friedlander, the modernist titan of photography, and to LGBTQIA bodies across gender and identity spectra.&160;&10;&10;When curator John Szarkowski first presented Friedlander&8217;s nudes in a solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in 1991, he wrote that &34;the qualities of generosity and openness, and the habit of continual exploration-of logical extemporization enlivened by an unassuming audacity&34; make Friedlander&8217;s nudes so &34;richly and rewardingly complex.&34; Maida, viewing the traits of openness, exploration, extemporization, and audacity as queerness itself, reimagined Friedlander&8217;s nudes by picturing different bodies in A Third Look to converse with Friedlander&8217;s. &160;Maida calls their feminist reclamation of history &34;a visual queering of modernist photography, providing a visible reconciliation of where the canon of art photography has historically allowed us to see&34; with the broader spectrum of the human nude.
