Publication: Madrid : Fundación MAPFRE, cop. 2017Physical description: 246 p. : 28 cmNotes: Sala Fundación MAPFRE Casa Garriga i Nogués, barcelona, Sapain, january-april 2017.Fotomuseum, The Hague, Netherlands, july-october 2017The Morgan Library & Museum, NewYork, january-may 2018Berkeley Art Museum & Pacific Film Archive, California, july-october 2018Sumario: Peter Hujar: Speed of Life is the first systematic exploration of the work of this important postwar photographer (1934-1987). This first in-depth approach to Hujar's life and work consists of 160 pieces, including previously unexhibited materials: personal papers, contact sheets, and interviews with friends and associates from different periods of his life. Structured in suites -the format preferred by Hujar to present his work- the catalog is configured both as a historical retrospective and as a monographic proposal around Hujar's broad creative arc and his evolution: His beginnings in the 1950s as an assistant in an advertising studio; the formation of his aesthetic through fashion and portrait photography in the late 1960s; his deeply personal chronicle of artists and subcultures in 1970s New York; and the final stretch of the 1980s, as AIDS and creative effervescence transform the East Village (Manhattan)Related records: Traducción de: Peter Hujar : a la velocitat de la vidaMateria / lugar / evento: Hujar, Peter Fotografía Catálogos de exposiciones Colecciones de arte Otros autores: Fundación MAPFRE
