Ari Marcopoulos, Reset Zine

$15.00

New zine by Ari Marcopoulos.

Photographer Ari Marcopoulos immerses himself completely in the individuals, personalities, visionaries, and scenes he has photographed. Originally from the Netherlands, Marcopoulos came to New York City in 1979 where he printed photographs for Andy Warhol. He immediately became involved in the art and music scenes of the time. His rarely published photographs of Jean-Michel Basquiat from this period are perhaps the most intimate photographs ever taken of the artist. Marcopoulos currently lives in Sonoma, California.
