  • 'My work has always come from empathy and love', says American photographer Nan Goldin.
    Goldin began taking photographs as a teenager in Boston, Massachusetts. Her earliest works, black-and-white images of drag queens, were celebrations of the subcultural lifestyle of the community to which she belonged and which she continued to document throughout the 1990s. During this period Goldin also began making images of friends who were dying of AIDS and recorded her experiences travelling in Asia.
    In this interview, Goldin introduces her latest book, Eden and After; a collection of portraits she has taken of children - one of the artist's ongoing photographic subjects. The book includes portraits of Goldin's close friends' children, with moments captured from pregnancy through to teenage years of life, and provides an intimate investigation into the narrative of childhood.

    "Do you remember God? Because I'm beginning to forget" Mind blown from the wisdom of a 4-year-old; thanks Nan Goldin for sharing that.

      To me, it is a pure and simple truth. "Growing up" is an attempt to remember what we knew as new-borns. The luckiest of us never loose the connection.

    Nan goldin art means so much to me. Her photography is so beautiful. For those of us who feel extremely marginalised /outside society, her work is comforting. Certainly for me. All those brilliant artists we lost through aids is extremely heartbreaking such as the magnificent David Wojnarowicz, Peter Hujar, Cookie etc.. So many. Thank you Nan. Your work is important. ❤️

    Very provocative. It's so true how our parents, not intentionally fuck us up by projecting their flaws on us. And we have to deal with theirs and ours. But amazing photography.

    she is right about parents...they should stop trying so hard...the worst are the stage mothers. I was the golden haired boy when I got results and when I got sick of that...I was a good-for-nothing-piece-of-shit. The benefit of that is you will HAVE to become your own authority , if you are going to survive as yourself. not some deluded idiots' dreams of oughta , havta , musta , shoulda. Cheers all

    I enjoyed the video very much as I do with most of Tate's offerings,but is it necessary for those annoying suggestion boxes of other videos at the very end.Also did you give credit to the music? Again there was no way to tell from the obstructions.
