Nicholas Taylor Portrait Photography

American

Nicholas Taylor is a renowned photographer and musician. Taylor moved to New York in 1977 to pursue a career as a photographer, and it was through the vibrant New York art scene that he came to know the young artist, Jean-Michel Basquiat. It was, in fact, his intimate portfolio of photographs documenting his friendship with Basquiat that rocketed Taylor to fame. The two would collaborate in the No Wave band “Gray” before Taylor launched a successful career as a DJ famous for track-looping. His track Suicide Mode would later be used in the soundtrack for Julian Schnabel’s 1996 film Basquiat.
