One-of-a-kind photographs straight from the studio’s crate, all of which were taken between the 1990s and 2000s of the artist’s extensive circle of friends and collaborators, skaters, muses, and subjects.
Represented in the photography collections of many major museums around the world, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and The Museum of Modern Art, New York, also includes outtakes from a calendar shoot for the street brand Supreme, as well as many unique portraits, self portraits and various snapshots. These unique 4 x 6 in. and 5 x 7 in. colour prints will be sold pre-picked at 100€ each for a limited time and truly a unique opportunity to have an original Larry Clark.
