Albert Maysles on Paper

Legendary filmmaker Albert Maysles, fresh off his stint playing Santa Claus in Kate Spade‘s holiday ads, has an exhibition of photographs and “cinemagraphs” at New York’s Steven Kasher Gallery. The show, which runs through March 15th, is accompanied by A Maysles Scrapbook, a lushly produced monograph from Steidl that draws upon a recently discovered cache of original film negatives, hours of outtake film, numerous still photographs, production notes, and personal and business letters.

The exhibition includes vintage black-and-white prints from the 1950s as well as large-scale, limited-edition cinemagraphs reproduced from the original footage of Grey Gardens, Gimme Shelter, Salesman, and other films that Maysles made with his late brother, David.
