Artist Bio: Larry Clark was born in 1943 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He worked as an assistant to his mother, who went door-to-door offering her service as a baby photographer. This early work in photography as a teenager led him to attend school at the Layton School of Art, working with Walter Scheffer from 1961 to 1963. He then went on to serve in the Vietnam War. His first published work, Tulsa, in 1971, gained him fame and notoriety. Tulsa focused on the drug use, sex, and violence of the adolescents in Tulsa, Oklahoma in the 1960s.
Clark also released several feature films, including Kids (1994) and Another Day in Paradise (1999). Kids was critically acclaimed after having been featured at the Sundance Film Festival the year it was released. It focused on his experiences in New York, specifically with teenagers and the culture of drugs and sex. His independently released Marfa Girl (2012) won the Marcus Aurelius Award for Best Film at the 2012 Rome Film Festival.
Clark's work is featured at many prominent institutions, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY and The Museum of Modern Art, New York, NY. His work is also displayed at the Frankfurt Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt, Germany. A retrospective of Clark's work titled, Kiss the Past Hello, was held at the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris in 2010.
