Steve McQueen, William Claxton, 1st Edition, Arena, 2000

About the Item

First edition, published by Arena Editions, Santa Fe, 2000. This photographic art book features William Claxton's unique photographs that capture the young, controversial American actor at the beginning of his movie career during the 1960s. Claxton captures McQueen's talent and perfectionism, sensitivity and puckish humour, rarely revealed publicly but shown openly to his close friend. Including anecdotes and recollections alongside mostly never-before-published photographs, Claxton creates a photographic close-up of a great movie star, and a touching memory of a personal friendship. Hardback in publisher's original dust jacket, text in English, around 180 pages, illustrated heavily in colour and black and white throughout.
