Year: 1994

This is a chronicle of Nan Goldin - a New York-based photographer - and her friend David Armstrong's friends, loves, and lives over 20 years. The book is both a visual dialogue between two artists and the portrait of a generation whose hopes and aspirations have been scarred by drugs, AIDS and sexual harassment. The parallel paths of their lives are represented in this book in the juxtaposition of styles - Goldin's colour photography set against Armstrong's more austere black-and-white imagery. It is both an illustrated history of recent culture and an artistic experiment.

Hardcover with dust jacket, 32.5 x 24 cm. Small bumps on the edges, some wears on the cover and a circular trace on the back cover (See pictures).
