John Fante’s The Road to Los Angeles Ask The Dust

RS, NYU, is doing a book about Chauncey Hare - asked me for info
Here are some of my responses to his Qs:
I am happy to talk this week or whenever
Few facts will come from me
Never met him heard he decided to be his socialist-outsider but/and got in front of Szarkowski I saw a few pictures = know why JS was attracted
Bill W. J. Burback would be my go-to info guy for the time-frame
and Susan Kismaric of-course maybe Lee Tod
The issues are What you teach & What you decide to write about - who you are.
What I've Pictured - who I am - is in my website and book.
I didn't know Hare and was not interested in his pictures Respect for Other's self-work is granted!
I 'knew' art history in the '60s - photography in '70s & stopped caring about system judgements (capitalist/white-supremacist) ... following My System instincts. I enjoyed a connection to JS thru Bill Burback, New York was always fun. I was doing art mailings with my Berkeley High kids, then photos after I built 2 darkrooms there. Organic evolving.
You have your own treasure hunts RS
What is not being presented, world wide?
... No, I don't want to talk more - been written-said.
Respect from me! BE WELL ...
Know: I never photographed by Theme, Plan, Point-to-illustrate. Always Instinct: daily, momently Treasure Hunting. I am not academic, outside digesting my life - alongside the surfaces of our life together.
Hope I haven't left you on empty holding I simply know little of C. Hare et al
Art & Photo postcards started at Berkeley High in '69-70
I/we weren't crashing folks-museums-bigwigs To Share
I was moved by Warhol in '63+ so-called 'anti-masterpiece' feelings democratic-stuff bypassing systems-institutions
Then, like Hare, I wind up at MoMA - because of my Berkeley friendship with Bill Burback Szarkowski's Intern
ho-ho not feeling hoe yet
The internet struck me direct when I was ready to evolve that way
From postcards to internet share audience
Facts will molder over time somethings are in the Book
?here: 1995 Marc James Leger ↗
I'd like to evolve outta this hip-shit right now RS Lucky Bill
Have you read John Fante’s Bandini series
