The Perfect Medium: Photography and the Occult
Faith in the spirit world and in the mysterious power of photography
by Leslie Camhi
The Village Voice
The MET - 1000 Fifth Avenue
Through December 31
In the 1870s, the first French spirit photographer, Édouard Isidore Buguet, operated "a little industry turning out ghosts" (as one chronicler called it) from his Parisian studio. After a long wait, with his client finally settled, Buguet would enter the room in a trance, perform a series of incantations and magnetic passes over the camera, place his head in his hands, and groan. At last a portrait was taken: When developed, it sometimes showed spectral beings invisible to the naked eye, hovering near the sitter. The beloved features of a drowned brother, a deceased wife or child might be discerned among their veiled and swirling forms.
Buguet was convicted of fraud in 1875; during his sensational trial, he confessed to using double exposures and jointed, cloaked dummies to create his illusions. Yet despite these admissions, many of his clients persisted in recognizing in his pictures the faces of their lost relations. Buguet had provided them with consolations too deep to be denied.
"The Perfect Medium: Photography and the Occult," a rich and fascinating exhibition organized by the Metropolitan Museum and the Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris, explores the fertile cross-pollination of two beliefs: faith in the spirit world and in the power of photography to capture hitherto unknown reaches of experience. Its curators, Pierre Apraxine, Sophie Schmit, and at the Metropolitan, Mia Fineman, have focused mostly on the period from the 1860s to the 1940s, following the great waves of spiritualist practice that arrived in the wake of mounting casualties from conflicts such as the Civil War, the Paris Commune, and World War I.
