Artist Statement

Shot in the early 1920s by Polish-born photographer Theodor Horydczak (1889-1971), Pie is a pared down glamour shot, big on drama. A true documentarian, Horydczak created photographs characterized by precision and focus with careful attention to lighting and angles, giving his shots a stage-like quality. Here, Horydczak reaches peak pie potential: a singular plate perched delicately atop fingertips with light reflecting off bright white cream leaving a soft halo of glow in the dark background. Like the spotlight as the start of a show—or salivation at the start of a meal—Pie has anticipation baked in. So settle in and quiet down for this episode of Pie Unplugged.

Theodor Horydczak

Born in Poland in 1899, Theodor Horydczak took up photography during World War I after emigrating and joining the U.S. Army Signal Corps. In the 1920s, he settled in Washington D.C., where he flourished as a freelance photographer documenting architecture, people, and streets of the city. Considering himself more craftsman than artist, Horydczak developed a straightforward style that depicted his subjects with such clarity and presence they become almost tactile.
