Peter Hujar, 1934/1987
Self Portrait, Jumping, 1974
Peter Hujar's life and images are inseparable from New York.
Independent by nature, combative and combatant, cultured and very well introduced into the artistic milieu of the avant-garde scene of dancers, musicians, visual artists and transvestites.

Ecstatic Photographer Peter Hujar is one of the top ten photographers of all time.
Simple, fleeting photos of people who have the bravery to be themselves.
