vanguardias que le revistieron de un aura heroica. Fotografió algunas de las obras de artistas como Derain, Braque o Utrillo, adelantando sin intención una de las estrategias reproductivas de la propia Levine, y su obra fue admirada por Man Ray, Berenice Abbot y Ansel Adams. Atget está también íntimamente relacionado con otro concepto que importa mucho a Levine: el de memoria.
