Ryan McGinley: The Kids Were Alright

The first book to examine Ryan McGinleyâ€™s early photographs and Polaroidsâ€”raw, visceral portraits of his coterie of friends and artists
in downtown New York City.
Â
Published to accompany an exhibition at Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, Ryan McGinley: The Kids Were Alright focuses on the photographerâ€™s early work from 1998 to 2003, the year of his solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
Â
These early photographs and Polaroidsâ€”many of which have never been exhibited or publishedâ€” document his friends and collaborators in downtown New York City. In the process, McGinley created a powerful portrait of his generation and their often debauched lifestyle: gritty, daring, and focused on moments of both pleasure and tedium. McGinleyâ€™s singular ability to capture the mood and emotional depth of a moment is evident even from the earliest years of his career.
Â
Curator Nora Burnett Abrams offers the most comprehensive consideration to date of this important work in her essay, and other contributionsâ€” including an interview with McGinley and artist Dan Colen and several short reminiscences from many of his subjects and social circle at the timeâ€” will provide context and commentary on the more than 100 works in the volume.
