VIVIAN MAIER Photofile

VIVIAN MAIER Photofile. With the discovery of her archive in a thrift auction house in 2007, Vivian Maier’s posthumous trajectory from relative obscurity to one of the great American photographers of the 20th century is a story of a singular consistent talent.

From the mid-1950s throughout her adult life, she worked as a nanny between New York and Chicago, and it was during this time that she created a huge body of photographs and films recording everyday street life, often including her own self-portrait and moments of fleeting reflection within the cityscape. With her work compared to Helen Levitt, Robert Frank and Diane Arbus, her photographs are a fascinating window into American life.
