About the Item

Fernando Natalici: "Mali Dust" location: Gao, Mali, Africa - 2003 Resin Coated photo paper. Hand Toned Sepia; shot with TRIX film 11x14 inches Some minor surface dimples; otherwise very good condition Unique. One of. Hand-signed on the verso. Obtained directly from artist Artist Notes: "I was working on a video project for Dutch TV about the Niger River, we came up from the town of Niamey, Niger on a small boat up the river; 3 people, 11 days, sleeping in tents on small islands near the middle of the river. It was too risky to set up camp on the river margin; we were documenting how the longest river in Africa works as a highway for trade and communication and to all sorts of activities... When we arrived in GAO, Mali, and checked into a small hotel. I go out to a balcony on the second floor; the sun was setting, the air was thick with sand blown from the Sahel desert, it was getting dark; you couldn't see much, just shapes; kids playing soccer, motorcycles and bikes, people in robes with their faces covered, it was almost too dark to shoot, only a slow shutter speed would work; it even heightened the appeal of the moment." More on Fernando Natalici New York based photographer Fernando Natalici is best known for his iconographic documentation of the downtown Manhattan art scene of the mid/late 70's and early 80's. Natalici’s portfolio includes sought after images of a young Patti Smith, Blondie, Talking Heads, Keith Haring, The Ramones and more. As an Art Director, Fernando has played a key role in creating memorable visuals for historic NY venues such as CBGB's, The Mudd Club, Area and Danceteria. Fernando’s work was recently featured in the Jeffrey Deitch curated show “Area” at The Hole Gallery NYC, with his film stills from "Unmade Beds" & "The Foreigner"- two of the most significant underground films of the 1970’s New York Punk scene, recently exhibited at The Museum of The Moving Image.
