The curators of an exhibition of one of New York’s most important photographers, who captured gay life in the city during the 1970s, hope the show will shed new light on an artist whose work was deemed too “difficult” in his lifetime.
Eyes Open in the Dark, which opens at Raven Row in London on Thursday, is the largest UK exhibition of photographs by the late photographer Peter Hujar, who has been acclaimed for the warmth and compassion of his images but was little known during his lifetime.
