Ari Marcopoulos Out & About should be considered a diary of one photographer's journey through two decades of New York life. Originally form the Netherlands, Marcopoulos moved to New York at the end of the '70s. Out and About covers his photographic activity in New York, spanning from images of underground artists and celebrities of these times, to the snapshots documenting street life and the telling portraits of Marcopoulos himself, his wife and his children. Different images, all equally characterized by an unmistakeable element. As Aaron Rose writes in his introductory text: What Ari was doing photographically with the art and music stars of the Eighties is the same thing he was doing in our little misfit art scene in the Nineties and he still continues today. He is consistently seeking style, substance and spirit in the places most people forget to look. He is Out and About, exploring the world in search of subjects and situations from which we all can learn. It's true that the photographs in this volume represent a time and place in New York that is long gone now. [...] But thanks to the photographs of Ari Marcopoulos some evidence of that time can live on - not only in the pages of this book, but in the hearts and minds of everyone whom Ari's photographs have touched. The book also features critical essays by Harmony Korine and Diego Cortez.

Hardcover. Etat : As New. Etat de la jaquette : As New. Hardcover with dust jacket, [248] pages : illustrations (some color) ; 32 cm. Fine/as new, still in publishers shrink wrap. 'Ari Marcopoulos: Out & About' should be considered a diary of one photographer's journey through two decades of New York life. Originally form the Netherlands, Marcopoulos came to New York City in 1979 where he printed photographs for Andy Warhol. He immediately became involved in the art and music scenes of that era. At the same time, Marcopoulos was actively shooting photographs on the streets, documenting the scenes of Times Square "B-Boys" and other denizens of the fringes of society. In the early 1990's he turned his attention to the growing scene of skateboarding youths that populated the streets of downtown New York, capturing these subjects with the same intimacy as those of the 1980's generation. 'Out and About' focuses not only on the underground artists and celebrities of these times, but intersperses them with documentation of street life, ephemera, and telling portraits of Marcopoulos, his wife and his children as they grew together over the years against the backdrop of the city. - from the dust jacket.
