About the Item

In 1978, photographer Fernando Natalici, the creative mind behind the graphic design for iconic venues like CBGB and the Mudd Club, spent four hours shooting the seedy scenery of Times Square and 42nd Street. And while the candid images capture a grimier slice of the city, they also "immortalize it as a wildly beautiful place of wonder and contemplation." From the 2014 Lot 180, exhibition catalogue: "Natalici's original shots candidly recalls 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."
