Next time you're strolling past
the Union with a little time on
your hands, head on over to the
University musium of art and
ease on up to the second floor.
You will find a heavier con-
centration of fine photographic
images in those four rooms than,
you will 'find anywhere in the
midwestern United States. But
be prepared for visual oversa-
turation.
The life of one man is made
visible on the walls. His name
is Walker Evans and he is

amazing. His deep love of life
and his simple wisdom radiate
from a sparkle of light in his
eyes and a spark of energy in
the photographs seen by those
eyes.
At first, you may think of
his photographs as strangely
trivial. A pot-bellied stove, a
bed frame, or some silverware
may not move your sense out of
equalibrium unless you are finely
tuned. Evans is a gentle man.

the skull like a sledge hammer.
They are subtle, and therein
lies their ultimate power.
Evans says "The streets are
my museum - they provide
food for hungry eyes." He de-
lights at walking down a street
and looking at'' the infinitely
subtle forms and textures of ob-
.iects, architecture, and people.
He collects these images by
photographing them in superb
detail with his 8X10 view cam-
era. He is, as he calls himself,
"A collector of streets."
But he is also a collector of
rooms and rooms are a direct
expression of the people whose
lives are lived within them. The
objects that a person places in
his room reveal as much about
his personality as would read-
ing his mind.
Evans, in light of this, photo-
graphs these rooms with care
and humility, never rearrang-
ing a single object. Every wrin-
kle in the bedsheet was put
there by the person who lived
in that room - a real person,
living a real life. And the con-
tour of every wrinkle with the
subtle gradations of the light
falling upon it speak to us of
a human life.
