Overview

The artist's studio occupies a unique place in the popular imagination. Its environment is both the site of the artist's creative production, and a deeply private, personal space that nourishes and bears witness to the artist's working process, in a continuous interplay with its location, layout, interior and ambience. This rare access to the studio by a trusted visitor provides a unique opportunity to experience the lives of artists working in New York, through their methods, materials and influences, contained within the intimate space of the studio, and observed with an acutely sensitive eye. Artist Studios in New York - which Marco Anelli has been exploring since 2011 - leads the viewer into the creative process of internationally famous artists such as Alex Katz, Alfredo Jaar, Cecily Brown, Dan Colen, Elisabeth Peyton, Francesco Clemente, Jack Pierson, Joan Jonas, Joyce Pensato, Jonas Mekas, Jordan Wolfson, Julian Schnabel, Julie Mehretu, Kiki Smith, Lawrence Weiner, Mariko Mori, Marina Abramovic, Matthew Barney, Mickalene Thomas, Nate Lowman, Pat Steir, Rob Wynne, Robert Longo, Stanley Whitney, Tony Oursler, Ugo Rondinone, Urs Fisher, Vik Muniz.

Offers a fascinating glimpse into the living and working quarters of some of the world's most accomplished creators.--Michael-Oliver Harding CNN

For those in love with the mythic lore of the artist's studio, where cigarette smoke dances and unbridled creativity flows like wine, you'll get your fix in Anelli's book, which includes images of Jonas Mekas's bohemian, book-filled den and the spooky, still-untouched studio apartment of legendary writer William S. Burroughs. But for the most part, the studios look more modern, more real: they're spacious and industrial, and often filled with assistants and rows of shelves. Often, they are simply in an artist's apartment.--Michael-Oliver Harding Artnet Offers a fascinating glimpse into the living and working quarters of some of the world's most accomplished creators.--Michael-Oliver Harding CNN
