Untitled (policeman on motorcycle talking to another man) c. 1950

Editor: So this gelatin silver print, "Untitled (policeman on motorcycle talking to another man)" by Jack Gould, has an everyday feel, doesn't it? It's like a frozen slice of life. What jumps out at you? Curator: It's the mundane made monumental, isn't it? That quiet exchange. I wonder what they're talking about. Perhaps it's the way Gould frames the cop with that shiny bike, almost like a knight. Does the ordinary become extraordinary through simple observation? Editor: That's a cool perspective! Knight in shining armor, but on a motorcycle. I guess art really is in the eye of the beholder. Curator: Exactly! It's a reminder that art is everywhere, even in the mundane moments if we choose to see it.
