First edition. Folio. Hardcover with printed boards. Numerous b&w plates throughout. New York: Welcome Enterprises, 2006.
From 1980 to 1990 over five hundred of Amy Arbus's impromptu portraits of New Yorkers appeared in the Village Voice column entitled 'On The Street'. Similar in vibe to the straight-ups of i-D she shot anybody with a sharp style. This book compiles highlights from a decade of her work, and features a young Madonna captured in the same week her single 'Everybody' hit the charts, amongst others. A truly incredible style document.
