Salute, Walt Whitman is a poetic photographic tribute by Duane Michals to the legacy of Walt Whitman.
Known for his deeply conceptual and narrative-driven approach, Michals constructs a visual dialogue with Whitman’s writing, exploring themes of identity, the body, sexuality, and the human spirit.
Rather than functioning as a traditional photobook, the work unfolds as a sequence of staged and symbolic images, often accompanied by handwritten text a signature element of Michals’ practice. The photographs move between intimacy and metaphysical reflection, echoing Whitman’s expansive and humanistic vision.
Through this interplay of image and text, the book becomes both homage and reinterpretation, bridging literature and photography in a highly personal and introspective form.
A refined and contemplative publication within late 20th-century conceptual photography.

The Story
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.
Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.
To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.
We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
