Artists Portraits New York 1982

By Kurt Edward Fishback

Until recently, making photographic portraits of artists in their space was an ongoing project for me that began in 1979. Over two hundred and fifty artists have kindly collaborated with me by posing. My intent has been to share artists with the public in a way that both defines the artists using their environments and in the process make them more real and accessible. All too often, an artist is only known for their work. This book contains the portraits of forty-five important New York artists made during the month of May, 1982 during a trip to New York. Some included are Andre Kertesz, Robert Mapplethorpe, Cornell Capa, Alex Katz, and Chuck Close.
