12 photographers who churned out the best street photography of New York in the 70s and 80s from Bruce Davidson to Martha Cooper and Meryl Meisler.
The photographs in Peter Schlesinger's book A Photographic Memory 1968-1989 are a visual diary of an extraordinary life that has intersected with some of the brightest names in the worlds of art, fashion and society. Schlesinger's remarkable journey began in 1966 when as an 18-year-old student at UCLA he met the artist David Hockney. The two moved to London, where Schlesinger was introduced to the city's fashionable bohemian society. There, as well as on trips, Schlesinger met and photographed some of the great personalities of the day, including Cecil Beaton, Paloma Picasso, Grace Coddington, Tina Chow, Christopher Isherwood and Manolo Blahnik, and offers an intimate glance into fashionable bohemian society throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s. It tells of hours spent sunbathing or lingering over dinners, intimate moments at home with Hockney and later, his boyfriend Eric, car rides with Andy Warhol in Monte Carlo and watching Blahnik get his hair cut.
