Résumé :

In the beginning, Peter Bellamy was a babe in the lofts. He didn't know much about art (he had been to the Whitney about once), but he astutely knew that a photographer needs a vehicle. If photography is a way of seeing, there has to be a consistent and cumulative way to see and be seen, especially if your goal is a book, and Bellamy has a substantial product between these covers in the manner of Robert Frank, Walker Evans, and Garry Winogrand.
Since the start of The Artist Project in 1981, Bellamy has taken over 10,000 photographs of artists. In the course of it he has become educated, and we have this record of the artists' lives. What is honest and resonating about the project is Bellamy's photography of all kinds of artists at all levels of success and notoriety.
