Larry Clark Life

Lawrence Donald Clark (born January 19, 1943) is an American film director, photographer, writer and film producer who is best known for his controversial teen film Kids (1995) and his photography book Tulsa.

His work focuses primarily on youth who casually engage in illegal drug use, underage sex, and violence, and who are part of a specific subculture, such as surfing, punk rock, or skateboarding.

Early life

Clark was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He learned photography at an early age. His mother was an itinerant baby photographer, and he was enlisted in the family business from the age of 13. His father was a traveling sales manager for the Reader Service Bureau, selling books and magazines door-to-door, and was rarely home. In 1959, Clark began injecting amphetamines with his friends.

Clark attended the Layton School of Art in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he studied under Walter Sheffer and Gerhard Bakker.

Larry Clark Career

Career

He went to New York City in 1964 to freelance, but within two months, he was drafted into the United States Army. He served in the Vietnam War from 1964 to 1965 as part of a unit that supplied ammunition to troops fighting in the north. Tulsa, a photographic documentary describing his teenage friends' drug use in black and white, was inspired by his experiences there.

Clark shot pictures of his drug-shooting coterie, which critics have characterized as "exposing the truth of American suburban life on the fringe" and "shocking long-held myths that drug use was solely representative of the urban landscape."

Teenage Lust (1983), a "autobiography" of his teen years seen through the photographs of others, was his sequel. In Times Square, New York City, it contained family portraits, more teenage drug use, graphic representations of teenage sexual activity, and young male hustlers. Clark wrote "The Perfect Childhood" a photographic essay that explored the effects of media in youth culture. His photographs are on view at several art museums, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, Museum of Photographic Arts, and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.

Clark produced Chris Isaak's music video "Solitary Man" in 1993. This experience sparked an interest in film direction. Clark met Harmony Korine in New York City and asked Korine to write the screenplay for his first feature film Kids, which was released to controversies and mixed critical reception in 1995. Clark continued producing and shooting a handful of other independent feature films in the many years after this.

Clark shot three films in 2001 — Bully, Ken Park, and Teenage Caveman — over a nine-month period. They are his last films to feature professional actors as of 2017.

Clark spent several hours in a police cell after punching and trying to strangle Hamish McAlpine, the UK distributor for Ken Park. According to McAlpine, who was left with a cracked nose, the incident resulted from a discussion about Israel and the Middle East, and he claims he did not provoke Clark.

Clark talked about his drug use throughout his life, but in a 2016 interview, he maintained complete sobriety while filmmaking. He confessed that Marfa Girl was the only exception to his abstinence regime while filming. Clark explained that he used opiates for pain as a result of double knee replacement surgery.
