Terryworld
 
enlarge poster
September 10, 2004 — October 02, 2004
18 Wooster Street, New York

Terry Richardson, the irreverent New Yorker who changed photography forever, showed his most personal work in years at Deitch Projects in his show Terryworld. It is his most heartfelt and endearing work to date, a relentless onslaught of everything that makes his photos beautiful but with more passion and sincerity than ever before. For those select few not familiar with Richardson’s work it is an inimitable combination of low and high art. It is harsh and scary, lewd and erotic, hilarious and beautiful but, most importantly it is loved and understood by everyone who sees it. His photographs are the truth. There is no pretension, no premeditation and no agenda. Terry Richardson lives his life as a fearless sensualist and his camera is always in hand capturing every second of the journey. In Terryworld, everything is there, bare and untethered for all to see, and if you are happy to be alive you cannot resist these depictions of our magnificent world gone mad.
