Len Gittleman 1975

"Len Gittleman" (1975) is a black and white photographic print by Mike Mandel, a conceptual artist known for his work exploring systems of classification. This photograph, part of a larger series, features a baseball card-style image of a man in a baseball uniform, capturing the aesthetic and format of popular culture artifacts. The image's simple composition and direct gaze create a sense of immediacy, drawing the viewer into the world of the subject. Mandel's work challenges viewers to consider the underlying structures and assumptions inherent in everyday objects and cultural representations.
