About this work

Made in New York City in 1977, this image of Richard Hell at a pool places a defining punk figure in an unexpected setting. The work expands the archive beyond the club, revealing the elasticity of style and persona around the downtown scene.

Chris Stein’s access to musicians and artists allowed him to photograph them in spaces that complicate public identity. His pictures often find their interest in these shifts of context, where performance and everyday life briefly overlap.
