Syracuse (signed)
Shot during a 1981 residency in the city of Syracuse, in Upstate New York, was released at New York Art Bookfair. Gilden himself had forgotten the project, and many of the images from it, until happening upon the negatives in late summer, 2018. Gilden spent his time in Syracuse shooting at the sorts of mass gatherings he had been focusing on at the time – state fairs, fetes, picnics and parties – as well as working his way into the homes of the city’s blue-collar residents. He also photographed the local assisted living communities, impressed by what he saw as the distinctly open-minded attitudes toward them, evident in the local population.
