NOW SHIPPING | Produced in 1979, Steve Kahn’s Corridor images were the final chapter of his black-and-white project “The Hollywood Suites 1974-76”, which was eventually published as a Nazraeli Library monograph in 2014. In keeping with the style and concerns of the earlier work, the Corridor photographs were originally intimate, pull-and-peel Polaroid prints shot in Hollywood’s aging apartment buildings. These furtively snapped images of common hallways were intended to capture the stifling desperation of the tenants’ lives through the metaphor of shared interior space. The series was Kahn’s first venture into color. Limited quantity at this price.
