Larry Clark was 16 in 1962 when he and his freinds started shooting Valo - a drug store nasal inhaler that contained a tremendous amount of amphetamine. After leaving Oklahoma to study photography in New York, and two years serving in Vietnam, Clark returned to Tulsa at 20, where he graduated from amphetamines to heroin. Here upended traditional documentary photography, turning his camera on himself and his social circle, producing a ground-breaking series of raw and intimate photographs chronicling the disintegration of the American dream. Clark's deeply intimate images exposed the previously unseen lives of suburban American teenagers, living a transgressive, outlaw lifestyle, hanging out in crash pads and committing burglaries and armed robberies to score dope. A small number of these photographs would come to form 'Tulsa', a cornerstone of contemporary photography. 50 years on, Larry Clark has returned to his archive of vintage prints, crafting a powerful vision of his work from 1962-1973, to produce his new book 'Return', a meticulously printed, outsized monograph.

"I've always been interested in small groups of marginalized people who no one would know about otherwise. I photographed my friends over a ten-year period in this secret world that nobody else could have possibly come in and done except someone from the inside like me. You see us from the time we were teenagers up until our twenties and how everything changed and how we changed. There weren't supposed to be drugs back then. It was supposed to be mom's apple pie and white picket fences. When I started making work, I said, "Why can't you show everything?" - Larry Clark.

hardcover. Condition: Nuovo (New). Prima edizione (First Edition). Fotografie in bianco e nero di Larry Clark . Cm 33x24,5. pp. 72. . Nuovo (New). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Larry Clark aveva 16 anni nel 1962 quando, insieme ai suoi amici, iniziò a farsi di Valo, un inalatore nasale da farmacia che conteneva un'enorme quantità di anfetamina.Clark tornò nella sua città natale, Tulsa, a 20 anni, dopo due anni di servizio in Vietnam. Qui passò dalle anfetamine all'eroina e stravolse la fotografia documentaria tradizionale, rivolgendo la macchina fotografica verso se stesso e la sua cerchia sociale, producendo una serie rivoluzionaria di fotografie crude e intime che raccontano la disintegrazione del sogno americano. Le immagini profondamente intime di Clark rivelano la vita inedita di adolescenti americani di periferia, che vivono uno stile di vita trasgressivo e fuorilegge, frequentando rifugi e commettendo furti e rapine a mano armata per procurarsi la droga. Un piccolo numero di queste fotografie avrebbe dato vita a ?Tulsa?, una pietra miliare della fotografia contemporanea. A 50 anni di distanza, Larry Clark è tornato al suo archivio di stampe d'epoca, elaborando una visione potente del suo lavoro del 1962-1973, per produrre il suo nuovo libro ?Return?, una monografia meticolosamente stampata di grandi dimensioni, che è scioccante oggi come mai lo è stata, anche in un momento in cui la dipendenza da oppioidi è più diffusa che mai.
