Men At Work . South Capitol and M Street, SW . WDC . Saturday afternoon, 1 October 2005

 

This plot is in the rear of homes located on Carrollsburg Place, SW, which is just off South Capitol and M Street. In 1979 and 1980 I, along with my then business partner Herb Lehner, would renovate two townhouses in the 1200 block of Carrollsburg Place.

The Paradoxes of Everyday Life (Chapter Four: The Rush Time)

 

I can't say that I don't have a good scenery to explore.

Everyday, I'm passing by this guys, when I'm going to my work, in the city limits.

However (because there always one or more howevers, damn it), or I'm belated, or I'm in such a hurry to go back home, to go shopping, to go to the market place.

Or I don't have the ideal light conditions.

Or the models aren't in the field.

If I could left a live cam here, will be fine.

Collage de personnages masculins que j’ai peints puis posés dans la rue en plein jour. Chaque objet peint est numéroté et signé. 111 personnages seront collés dans la rue

    

Collage of male characters that I painted and then placed in the street in broad daylight. Each artwork painted is numbered and signed. 111 characters will be pasted into the street.

    

Avant le collage, une photo de l’objet peint est systématiquement prise dans un endroit avec un minimum de mise en scène. Villes où des collages ont été effectués : Paris, Lyon, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Cayenne, Caen, Laval, Angoulême, Saint-Pierre des Corps, Le Mans, Saint-Brieuc, Rennes, Bourges, Brest, Montluçon, Rome et Vitry-sur-Seine

    

Before pasting, a photo of the painted object is always taken in a place with minimal staging. Cities where collages were made: Paris, Lyon, Los Angeles CA, San Francisco CA, Cayenne, Caen, Laval, Angoulême, Saint-Pierre des Corps, Le Mans, Saint-Brieuc, Rennes, Bourges, Brest, Montluçon, Rome et Vitry-sur-Seine…

    

Je réalise en parallèle une série de Men at work sur toile ayant le même thème ainsi que des collages de personnages sur toile. Mes collages sont parfois posés dans la rue par des artistes avec qui je collabore comme Gregos, Bastek ou encore des personnes qui veulent participer à mon projet artistique.

    

I paint in the same times series of Men at work on canvas with the same theme and characters of collages on canvas. My collages are sometimes placed in the street by artists with whom I work as Gregos, Bastekor people who want to participate in my art project.

Men At Work . Unit Block . M Street, SE . WDC . Saturday morning, 26 November 2005

 

While having breakfast with Richard at McDonald in SW at the corner of South Capitol and I Streets I'd read an article in December 2005 isssue of The Southwester www.swdc.org pertaining to the 23 October 2005 dedication of the Peace Memorial Garden which on 1 October, located at the corner of M and South Capitol Streets in SW, I had unknowingly photographed two Men At Work www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/54733736/in/photostream/ who at the time were preparing the soil for the future garden.

 

When Richard mentioned that he was going outside, of McDonalds, to the patio to take a smoke and would return, inside, in a few mintues to continue reading the paper I'd say that I would head back home ... and take some pictures ... along the way!

 

Wanting to photograph the newly installed Peace Memorial Garden I'd walk along Eye, turn right unto First Street and walk toward M Street. Since in September 2005 I had begun photographing "Men At Work" www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/31594129/in/set-705008/ in the Unit Block of M Street and so as to add a few more images to that collection www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/sets/705008/ I would take this series of images before heading over to Peace Memorial Garden, which is just a block up the street.

I thought that maybe the police who have Brighton Pier on their beat have the best job in the world, now, upon reflection, I think it's probably these two 'bumper car' mechanics !

After departing from the DC Superior Courts Jury Duty I'd revisit 505 9th Street for the first time since 22 December 2005 and was happy to see two of the same subjects that I had photograhed at that time. Visit www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/76772633/.

Over 200 years ago, General George Washington and his Continental Army camped above town as they expected the British Army under General Howe to try and attack the Colonial supply depots in Reading. This street was cobblestone back then, some of which washed out onto the current road surface...making for a great photographic opportunity with light and darkness and water. (see following pics)
