These pictures are some of the earliest documentation of an emerging art form, and are an under-recognized body of work from Matta-Clark—an artist who used the city’s crumbling infrastructure to reveal the social and political implications of architecture and urban design. This publicaLon features every frame from every roll of film Matta-Clark shot, organized according to the sequence of contact sheets in the artist’s archive. Taken together, these pictures demonstrate Matta-Clark’s obsession with the graffiL that had exploded across the city’s walls, subways, and buses, and show him growing bolder as he moved from photographing on the streets and subway platforms, to trespassing in outer borough train yards. While he was out on these documentary missions, MaAa-Clark also photographed abandoned architecture, infrastructure, and the social life of the city. Those pictures are included as well, as they show the relationship between graffiti and themes that are more commonly associated with the artist’s work. An essay by Antonio Sergio Bessa and a text by Jonathan Lethem accompany the photographs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1008 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e230mm × 180mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Antenne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57363707920768,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2009\/7115\/files\/PassingThroughMovingIn-NewYorkCityGraffitiPhotographs1972-73_1_b47d2db7-ba31-41ae-bfba-caa7b4c44491.jpg?v=1785493010","url":"https:\/\/unitom.info\/products\/passing-through-moving-in-new-york-city-graffiti-photographs-1972-73","provider":"UNITOM","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
