SANDY McLEOD - Lot 109
SANDY McLEOD On the set of Bette Gordon's film "Variety", 1983. Photo attributed to Nan Goldin (no photo credit), vintage RC print, annotated on back. Note: A striking contemporary image linked to the independent film Variety, an emblematic work of New York underground cinema in the 1980s. The shot, attributed to Nan Goldin, is fully in keeping with the artist's characteristically intimate, documentary aesthetic, with its spontaneous staging and raw, introspective atmosphere. The presence of a magazine in the composition and the model's relaxed posture reinforce the narrative, almost voyeuristic character of the image, echoing the film's themes. If the attribution to Nan Goldin were to be confirmed (no signature here), the value could be significantly revised upwards, as the artist is now a major figure in contemporary photography. As it stands, this is an interesting document combining independent cinema and auteur photography, with particular appeal for collectors sensitive to the New York scene of the 1980s. The RC print confirms a period production for promotional or documentary use.
