Early work: 1960-1965

Uittreksel

Early Work collects for the first time the entirely unseen photographs created during Shore's early teenage years between 1960 and 1965, a period of rich experimentation that precedes his time working with Andy Warhol at The Factory. These sophisticated and ambitious images demonstrate Shore's already-complex understanding of the photographic form, and the particular attention with which he approached his surroundings. It offers a unique record of the vibrant energy of New York in the early 1960s, and reveals the themes that provided a constant source of interest for the young photographer.
