About the Item

Fernando Natalici The Foreigner New York 1978: A vintage original film still shot on the set of the seminal 70's Manhattan art scene film, "The Foreigner," by celebrated downtown photographer, Fernando Natalici. Cooler than cool, this photograph was captured on the set of the Amos Poe directed film "The Foreigner" - a seminal work which has been documented in virtually every publication pertaining to the history of the late 70's New York Downtown Art scene. This swanky photo features Patti Astor, a downtown art scene figure famous for her role in the 1982 film Wild Style & the founding of the historic Fun Gallery in the East Village. A testament to the culture shaping New York No Wave scene of the time - director Amos Poe’s The Foreigner is considered by AMC to be a Punk Classic film & has screened worldwide. Silver gelatin print. 1978. 8 x 10 inches including borders. Good overall vintage condition. Hand-signed on the verso from an edition of 2 AP's (artist proofs). Obtained directly from artist. About The Artist: New York based photographer Fernando Natalici is best known for his iconographic documentation of the downtown Manhattan art scene of the mid/late 70's and early 80's. Natalici’s portfolio includes sought after images of a young Patti Smith, Blondie, Talking Heads, Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, The Ramones and more. As an Art Director, Fernando has played a key role in creating memorable visuals for historic NY venues such as CBGB's, The Mudd Club, Area and Danceteria. Fernando’s photo archive and art design were recently featured in two highly regarded New York shows: “Area” at The Hole Gallery NYC (2014) & “Downtown New York Film” at The Museum of The Moving Image (2015). _ Patti Astor (born ca. 1950) is an American performer who was a key actress in New York City underground films of the 1970s, and the East Village art scene of the 1980s, and involved in the early popularizing of hip hop & graffiti - starring in Wild Style. Astor co-founded the much historic contemporary art gallery, Fun Gallery - a place where neighborhood kids, downtown artists, b-boys, rock, film, and rap stars mixed with museum directors art historians and uptown collectors at wild openings featuring artists like Futura, Fab 5 Freddy, Lee Quinones, Kenny Scharf, Keith Haring and Jean Michel Basquiat.
