Written by Saundra Pursel Friday, 31 December 2010 18:25

New York City - ClampArt is pleased to present an exhibition of vintage photographs by artist, Jeannette Montgomery Barron.  Montgomery Barron began taking portraits of artists in 1982, starting with Francesco Clemente.  From there she photographed other such notable artists as Andy Warhol, Dennis Hopper, Jean Michel Basquiat, and William Burroughs.

It is impossible to ignore the intimacy of Montgomery Barron's images.  Her beautiful use of natural light in combination with her uncanny ability for putting her subjects at ease, make for stunning and poetic documents of the most significant culture makers of an entire era.

A number of monographs of Montgomery Barron's photographs have been published over the years, For more information please contact Brian Paul Clamp, Director, or see .  Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. On exhibition through 26 April, 2008.
