Description
The Chelsea Hotel is a vibrant snapshot of the bohemian era, captured by Brazilian photographer Claudio Edinger in the late 1970s and early 1980s. This revised and expanded edition of his iconic photo book presents a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the hotel's eccentric residents, both famous and obscure. Edinger's memorable portraits are complemented by an essay by Pete Hamill and texts from Chelsea residents including William S. Burroughs, Arthur C. Clarke, and Warhol superstar Viva. A new foreword by Alexandra Auder and a new appreciation by Fred Ritchin add depth and context to this highly sought-after volume. With additional photos from Edinger's archives, this edition offers a fresh perspective on a bygone era.
