[1st ed] Teenage Lust (Signed)

Larry Clark first made a name for himself when he revolutionized documentary photography in his classic book Tulsa, released in 1971, in which he presented straightforward, autobiographical images of violence, drug use, and adolescent sexuality. 

While Tulsa earned Clark a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts for use toward his next project, that work was delayed over a decade by the artist’s heroin addiction and a stretch in Oklahoma’s McAlester Penitentiary. 

Eventually, Clark completed his second and equally innovative body of work titled Teenage Lust, in which he largely shifted his focus from drug culture to sexual obsession.
