Larry Fink1 editions

In 1984, Larry Fink secured enduring fame with the book Social Graces, which mixed images from working class Pennsylvania with a portfolio from upper crust Manhattan, observing manners and mores on the long, curvy couches of Studio 54 and in the chaos of Pat Sabatines eighth birthday party, where the screen door is always just about to slam. Fink remains interested in what high and low culture have to say to one another, and has continued to seek the best of both behind the scenes at fashion shows in Runway, and in the ring with sparring fighters in Boxing. With Somewhere Theres Music he finds high and low--at last--united in Americas original musical export, jazz. Fink has photographed musicians before--Sean Combs in a tightly tailored suit, Lil Kim on the phone in a hotel bed, or Mexican guitarists plying their trade on the street--but here he luxuriates with Roy Hargrove and his trumpet, and Eartha Kitt and her smile, in a series that first appeared in The New York Times Magazine, and observes local musicians first photographed for a Washington Post Magazine story on "What Church is: God and Jazz and the Congregation That Tried to Mix Them." A perfect match of subject and artist, in more than 80 prints.
