Larry Stanton was a portraitist. He was always drawing people. He didn't exhibit much. Like most portraitists he was shy about showing his work, the worry about 'likeness', (perhaps a wrong notion) always seems to intervene. A kind of naive notion that the portait IS them seems to take place. Larry struggled with this and slowly his struggle was beginning to bear fruit, a fact which is visible in the selection of his drawings and paintings reproduced here.
This definitive publication on Larry Stanton's art and life includes 139 artworks, many of them portraits of the boys he met on nightly outings, as well as friends and family and a large collection of self-portraits, plus previously unpublished archive imagery of Stanton's circle
