Content
What we get in photo volume, 'AutoMagic' by Ray K. METZKER, is certainly more Magic than Auto. The straight and graphic views of Ray K. METZKER’s images include cars or parts of cars, all perfectly composed. His lines are clear and strong, nothing is left to chance – even the shadows are exactly where they should be, and the reflections force us to look twice. The black and white pictures were taken between 1958 and 2007, although the majority of the images stem from the mid-1960s, when cars still had recognizably individual characters."
