Peter Beard, NYC (Archival Pigment Print) Photograph - Limited Edition of 1

Peter Beard is remarkable not only as a photographer, but also as a diarist, writer, and consummate character. An adventurer at heart, he ran off to Africa shortly after college and began making photographs of the wildlife and their slaughter. his first book, "The End of the Game," has become a classic. This blurred portrait merges him with his work and also alludes to his long-standing relationship with Francis Bacon. As often as he photographed Francis, he was also a model for numerous Bacon paintings. He was incredibly alive to the moment. He had made pictures of rotting animals, as well as fashion models. He also did a lot of drawing on his photographs, splashing them with animal blood or writing text along the sides in blood. With this portrait of him, I wanted to capture some of that feeling of action and immediacy and of both beauty and horror that you find in his photographs.
