Larry Clark
Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1943. His mother was a door-to-door child photographer, and he learned photography skills as her assistant in his teens. In 1971, the release of his first photobook, "Tulsa," brought him both fame and notoriety.
This photobook, sporadically shot over eight years from 1963 to 1971, primarily focused on the hard drug culture in Tulsa. Despite its subject matter, the photographs captured are beautiful and rendered with great sensitivity, later profoundly influencing numerous photographers.
In 1995, he released his directorial debut, "KIDS." The film was lauded at the Sundance Film Festival as a "masterpiece destined to become a classic" and "a stunning shock," simultaneously establishing his position as a controversial filmmaker.
In recent years, he independently released "Marfa Girl," which he wrote and directed, on his own website in 2012, winning the Marcus Aurelius Award for Best Film at the Rome Film Festival. Considered one of the most uncompromising and independent film directors, Larry Clark is currently based in New York, where he lives and works.
