About the Item

Keith Haring, 1988 Archival pigment print image size: 36 x 36 inches Signed and numbered edition of 15 Renowned for his deeply expressive and captivating portraiture, William Coupon stands as a significant figure in American photography. Born in New York City, Coupon's innovative use of painterly backdrops and formal staging became his distinctive signature, turning his lens to a broad range of subjects spanning tribal people to world leaders and eminent personalities. His compelling renditions of Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton brought him international acclaim when they graced Time Magazine's "Person of the Year" covers. The insightful depth of these portraits, capturing the personas behind the power, exemplify his skill at revealing the human element in his subjects. In addition, Coupon's arresting photographs of cultural icons such as Yasser Arafat, George Harrison, Mick Jagger, and Miles Davis are marked by an intense intimacy, unmasking a personal side often veiled by their public personas. Beyond his noteworthy contributions to the realms of political and celebrity portraiture, Coupon's reverence for global cultural diversity shines in his breathtaking tribal portraits. These images pay homage to the complexity and richness of indigenous cultures, demonstrating his remarkable ability to transcend barriers and capture the universality of human experience. In sum, William Coupon's profound contribution to the art of photography lies in his ability to illuminate the inner lives of his subjects, painting with light an indelible portrait of our collective human story. IFAC Arts honored to represent the entire catalogue of William Coupon.
