with a portfolio by KATE SIMON
New York photographer Kate Simon’s iconic portraits defined what we labeled the “underground.” Ignoring an old audience. Creating a new one. Discovering a new sensibility and sharing it through the living truth of a human face before it becomes a cultural icon. Kate Simon is not simply a witness or an observer. She has always been part of the art scene, capturing the intimate moments of her friends.
