1991
An early work from this acclaimed photographer of the old, ugly, neglected, sick, demented, and drunk. A future Classic. Simultaneously criticized as exploitative and celebrated as being genuinely in touch with his subjects, Cumming’s often repellent and always engaging photographs bring sordid existences to life. "All of life is a stage" reverberates through the course of the photographs as they weave a complex path between theatricality and reality.
