About the Item

Ron Galella (1931) Grace Jones at Bond’s, New York 1980 11 x 14 inches Silver Gelatin Print Edition of 20 Signed, dated, titled by the artist. Described by a nickname of Paparazzo Extraordinaire by Newsweek and The Godfather of the U.S. paparazzi culture by Time magazine and Vanity Fair, Ron Galella is an American controversial photographer often regarded as a pioneer paparazzo and one of the most influential individuals in this particular field of photography. During the career that lasted for over half a century, Galella immortalized many celebrities and icons using his trusted camera, revealing their images to the public eye and building a notorious reputation around his name. Despite his often feuding with numerous celebrities, most notably the fight he had with Marlon Brando, Ron managed to become one of the leading photographers of the infamous paparazzi subgenre and has befriended many of his subjects, such as Andy Warhol who openly called out Galella as his favorite photographer.
