New York: Matthew Marks Gallery and Fraenkel Gallery, 2005. First edition. Hardcover, 104pp., 11 x 11 inches. Fine. Little to no visible defects. Published alongside an exhibition at Fraenkel Gallery in 2005, Night highlights 43 photographs Hujar made at night in New York City between 1974 and 1985. Hujar, "the quintessential New York artist" lived and worked in the East Village for much of his life and captured the city's corporate architecture, dilapidated domestic interiors, cruisy city parks, barren loading docks, and trash-strewn parking lots. In the tradition of Brassaï's Paris at Night , Hujar's book brings together a unique record of New York and its denizens, one as indelible as that of Weegee or Berenice Abbott.
