Warhol made quite a few of his male nude Polaroids at what were basically open cattle call tryouts. Someone would simply put the word out that Warhol was looking for models, and all sorts of people would show up. This fellow does not look like the typical sort one associates with Warhol, and those sneakers mark a point in time of American footwear evolution. I want more of this guy.

Not your typical Warhol model, but quite interesting. I like the lighting on this.
ReplyDeleteThanks for mentioning the lighting, as it is quite good.
DeleteI love this one! Reminds me of many a relaxing Saturday afternoon at Westworld down in the Village. We were all so much more sociable then.
ReplyDeleteA vanished time.
DeleteWow, a shout out to Westworld. Takes me back.
DeleteModel is interesting and appreciate the lighting like the others.
Interesting model and nice lighting!
ReplyDeleteThe footwear stands out. As does the model, as you pointed out.
He might still be on the New York scene. I wonder if anyone will recognize him from being on here.
