stan shaffer is quite extraordinary, i love the picture with philippa, with a sand beard, smiling and the picture of hitchcock with her daughter nude in the front seat of a late 60s car. cars drugs and sex. the prominence of angular utopia from that time and new york fashion, are all so mesmerising.
