Larry Clark

euro 160,00

In 2012 C/O Berlin developed a very special publication for the first monographic exhibition in Germany of the work of Larry Clark from 26 May to 12 August. Exhibition concept Felix Hoffman, Publication concept Felix Hoffmann. The catalog is designed as a triptych gatefold album cover and thus reflects the themes of the retrospective in both form and content: youth culture, sexuality, and music.

In the two outside pockets are lavishly produced color poster collages; in the middle pocket is a 24-page booklet with a text by Felix Hoffmann, Curator of C/O Berlin, as well as other pictures and collages.

Adolescent beauty, sexuality and drug-induced action—Larry Clark radically and realistically documents the everyday life of US teenagers, transgressing bourgeois moral concepts. From the drug scene in his hometown of Tulsa in the early 1960s to contemporary skaters in Los Angeles his works capture extremely intimate moments. The authenticity of Clarke’s images expose the consequences of a dysfunctional society and question the social responsibility and moral stance of its members.

The revolutionary and unique aspect of his photographs is—to this day – the closeness and intimacy between him and the documented persons and situations. As opposed to a classical photo-journalist who views an unfamiliar world from the outside, Larry Clark does not only take an interest in the life of his protagonists. Far removed from any form of voyeurism, he himself is a fundamental part of the scene he photographs. It seems as if he has a familiarity with the persons portrayed rather than just observing them. Without Larry Clark, photography would not have freed itself from the constraints of objectivity. Hardly any other photographer has ever achieved the same degree of intensity with which he immerses himself in his subject. It is here that the artist revives his own youth—each time with new protagonists.

ARD put the jumpers up to play a little game (something that's often played at weddings and such), called "Him or Me". They have to choose between them who fits the question better.

Here's what they're saying throughout the video:

Pius: Hands up or pointing at the other.

Andi: Eyes closed?

Karl: Eyes closed, that’s great.

(Question 1: Who’s the better dancer?)

Karl: No one wants to see that.

Stephan: Schützenfest (I don't know if that's a thing outside Germany? It's like a fair/festival featuring shooting competitions. (And (heavy) drinking and dancing at night.). And a dance course.

(Question 2: For whom are rituals more important?)

Markus: Both

Karl: Oh, yes, that’s tricky.

Pius: One haircut a week, before the competition. Quick hairdo, that’s important for under that helmet.

(Question 3: Who’s got more luggage when travelling?)

Philipp:  I always bring so much stuff.

Consti: Yeah, me.

Philipp: I always think I need something for every situation. The classic, two spare pants and then everything else as well.

Eisei: Something shit… (inaudible)

Karl: I  don’t know but my bag is always so heavy. And I don’t know how to declutter

Eisei: (something inaudible) a bit neatness from me…

Ach Felix... not this time...

[sketchyorsomething]

Quick question: Who do you think is Andi's current room mate?

I'm guessing Felix, but it could also be Pius (though I think he has a single room? Not sure where i've heard that though)

I mean we do know that Karl and Consti shared a room in Oberstdorf, and I think I've heard somewhere that Hille and Adrian share a room. I mean given that both Stephan and Eisei were swapped out of the team, it could also have been Karl and Andi at one point

Do we have any information on the current room assignments
