About the Item

Eric Mitchell on the set of The Foreigner: Chelsea Hotel, Manhattan, 1978 by Fernando Natalici: Cooler than cool, "The Foreigner" was photographed on the set of the Amos Poe directed film of the same title - a seminal work which has been documented in virtually every publication pertaining to the history of the late 70's New York Downtown Art scene. This swanky, historic photo features Eric Mitchell, an actor who played a pivotal role in the New York No Wave scene of the time. Shot in-between takes during the filming of Amos Poe’s The Foreigner at the Chelsea Hotel, where Eric plays Menace a character unwanted by society that takes refuge at SROs and furnished rooms in Manhattan. Considered by AMC as a primordial Punk Classic film. Cut! Silver Gelatin print, 1978 Total dimensions: 11x14 inches. Mounted. Some minor edge-wear and fading to white mounting; in otherwise good to very good overall condition Unique. Hand signed in the margins. Acquired directly from the artist.

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 photo archive and art design were recently featured in two highly regarded New York shows: “Area” at The Hole Gallery NYC (2014) & “Downtown New York Film” at The Museum of The Moving Image (2015).
