Almost more a diary than a monograph, Jeannette Montgomery Barron's My Years in the 1980s is a collection of photographs taken in studios, apartments and clubs, accompanied by Barron's notes, letters and mementos from New York in the 1980s, presented in the familiar format of a Moleskine notebook. Barron arrived in New York in the late 1970s, and her photographs offer a glimpse of the burgeoning East Village art scene through portraits of its protagonists, Barron's friends and peers: Jean-Michel Basquiat, Eric Fischl, Peter Halley, Keith Haring, Jenny Holzer, Robert Mapplethorpe, Cindy Sherman and Andy Warhol, among many others. | Jeannette Montgomery Barron: My Years in the 1980s, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
