Fernando Natalici Times Square New York City 1978: set of 6 works: In 1978, photographer Fernando Natalici, the creative mind behind stunning graphic design for iconic venues such as: Area, CBGB, Danceteria, Club 57 and the Mudd Club, spent twenty-four hours shooting the raw scenery of Times Square and 42nd Street. "Natalici's shots candidly recall a Times Square of flashing marquee lights, electric sexual energy and wild lawlessness. His photographs resuscitate a New York of yesteryear in all of its chiaroscuro, with it all of the dark tenets of urban life that are today masked beneath a glossy veil of uniformity."
