John Cyr : Developer trays
Developer Trays est l’hommage de John Cyr, le maître du tirage photographique, à l’artisanat et à l’art qu’il a passés sa carrière à perfectionner. Aussi sûr que l’âge de l’argent est arrivé à sa fin, il reste peu de praticiens de chambre noire extraordinaires et dévoués tels que John Cyr qui continuent de travailler avec la chimie et les processus plus ou moins inchangés depuis les débuts du médium.
Developer Trays is master photography printer John Cyr’s tribute to the craft and art he has spent his career perfecting. As sure as the age of silver has come to an end, there remain few but extraordinary and dedicated darkroom practitioners such as Cyr who continue to work with chemistry and processes more or less unchanged since the early days of the medium.

Entre 1979 et 1986 — après Stonewall et avant les jours les plus sombres de l’épidémie de sida —, il y a eu une période de vie gaie exubérante et florissante dans des endroits même alors connus sous le nom de « paradis gais ». Il y en avait d’autres, mais les plus connus étaient Castro District de San Francisco, Christopher Street et Fire Island de New York, et Provincetown, Massachusetts.
