Drop in the wind, but wondering if anyone can help me locate this original photo? I can't find it anywhere on the web

It's Denise Oliver-Velez in the Young Lords main office in East Harlem, circa 1970, by Hiram Maristany.

All that info, and I still can't find it, Any help would be welcomed. Thanks

What exactly do you mean by locate the original photo? That exact photo or others like it.

I think he means a high res of the image itself without the background.

The actual photo, like FD just said. I can't even find it on the Smithsonian website

Do you know the name of the photographer or artist who put it on the fence? Maybe try contacting them on social media.

I messaged the artist, but you're right. I believe Hiram Maristany is on the web somewhere

Gonna see if I can get a hold of him. Thanks

Sometimes artists don't give up their work willy nilly and protect it as if it's intellectual property. So keep that in mind and don't take it personal if they deny you.

I don't think anyone will be able to find it tbh. Hiram Maristany was the personal photographer and member of the Young Lord's and I'm guessing that art install is from a photo he took that was never released publicly. I'm guessing he has thousands of photos that aren't released as most professional photographers do.

I found this. The man probably barely uses a computer.

Yea, the photo install is part of an exhibit. But the original photo itself I think is from a random photo from his collection.

 

[Quincy McCall]

Thanks for the help, just gonna wait and see of anything turns up

Right, I was thinking the same. But if he wants it bad enough, it doesn't hurt to try. All he has to do is spend like 10 minutes to find the contacts and write a message. What is the worst that can happen?

My bad, wasn't aware he was contacting the photographer. Didn't realize I missed a whole bunch of posts.
