MARCOPOULOS, Ari. Portraits from the Studio and the Street.

(Amsterdam): Bert Bakker, 1987. First edition. Square octavo. Unpaginated. Introduction by Glenn O’Brien. The photographer’s scarce first book, a collection of portraits of New Yorkers—from well-known figures like Willem Dafoe, Roy Lichtenstein, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Queen Latifah, to more anonymous citizens referred to only by their first name or the location in which the image was captured. The volume offers a glimpse into that transient and much-mythologized moment in New York’s history when the established leaders in Pop Art rubbed shoulders with their younger counterparts in the burgeoning fields of street art and hip-hop. A very good copy in photo-illustrated boards without dust jacket as issued.
