About the Item

Gelatin silver print Signed, dated, and numbered, verso 20 x 16 inches, sheet 15 x 15 inches, image (Edition of 30) From the series, "Primitive Behavior" This artwork is offered by ClampArt, located in New York City. Please note that prices increase as editions sell. Steven Jenkins writes: “[This body of work was photographed] in the sand dunes that hug the shore of Provincetown, Massachusetts – historically a site of amorous, anonymous coupling among gay men…. Yamrus’ eerily beautiful black-and-white photographs commemorate the fallen dead who once populated this landscape of furtive sexual escapade. At the same time, Yamrus’ eloquent images of bodies stilled in dappled sunlight remind us, the still-standing witnesses, that intimacy is vital, and that we must accept its conflicting consequence if we are to discover, for the first or one-hundredth time, what it means to live life fully in the adult world.” Frank Yamrus has been exhibiting his work internationally for over twenty years, with his photographs represented in numerous public collections, including the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Worcester Art Museum, Massachusetts; and the Denver Art Museum; among others.
