Stolen? Borrowed?

Larry Wolf, Adam at the AI (2025)
gift from Robert Allerton

talking with Karen about Minor White

another visitor in the gallery asked: Minor White?

Yes, the photographer

He stole my friend Sheri's husband at a workshop

Stole him? Or borrowed for the workshop?

Stole him. 

 

The student so enraptured by the teacher to be stolen away

Tim's suggestion to actively misread misremember reimagine

To embody and make it my own.

Of all the bastards

These are the most beautiful

The ones I call my sons.

Minor White, Memorable Fancies 

15 December 1954
