Misty and Jimmy Paulette in a Taxi, NYC, 1991 is a large color photograph of two drag queens known as Misty and Jimmy Paulette. Goldin has photographed them close-up, sitting next to each other inside a taxi. They are framed against the taxi's rear and side windows, through which other yellow New York taxis are visible. The drag queens stare directly at Goldin's camera, aimed at them from the taxi's front seat. They are cropped just below breast level. The camera's flash has illuminated and accentuated their heavy makeup and shiny clothes. Misty wears a light blue wig, big heart-shaped silver earrings and a pvc-textured sleeveless top stretched tight over large fake breasts. Jimmy Paulette's costume includes a streaked blonde wig, a white stretchy-net top and a gold bra, the straps of which have fallen off his shoulders. White padding visible in one of the bra cups and two large holes in the front of the white net confer a sleazy edge to this glamour. Goldin first encountered drag queens in 1972 and quickly became obsessed. She explained: I was eighteen and felt like I was a queen too; they became my whole world. Part of my worship of them involved photographing them. I wanted to pay homage, to show them how beautiful they were. I never saw them as men dressing up as women, but as something entirely different - a third gender that made more sense than either of the other two. I accepted them as they saw themselves; I had no desire to unmask them with my camera. (Quoted in The Other Side, p.5.) To the in-crowd, Jimmy Paul is a master hairstylist whose clients include Thom Browne, Zac Posen, and Vogue. But last week, Paul became famous for an entirely different reason. On Thursday, Supreme released its Nan Goldin collaboration of T-shirts, sweatshirts, and skateboards printed with her famous photographs. One starred Paul’s alter-ego, Jimmy Paulette, seated in the back seat of a taxi with his friend Scott Andrews. “The Supreme collaboration was a surprise. I woke up Monday morning to texts from friends telling me about it,” Paul wrote to Vogue. “I had heard the possibility of a skateboard about a year ago but had no idea it would be like this. . . . I’m a fan of Supreme and I think they did a great job with it.” Goldin shot the image of Paul and Andrew while they were on their way to the New York City Pride Parade in 1991. “The backstory is that we were going to the parade to be on float that Lady Bunny invited us to be on,” Paul said, explaining he first met Goldin through his friends Jack Pierson and Tabboo!. “When I told her that Tabboo!, Scott Andrews, and I were getting ready at my apartment for the Gay Pride Parade, Nan asked to come over. She had her camera and documented us getting ready. The photo of Scott and I in the back of the cab is us on the way to the parade, about 12:00 noon. . . . It was a wonderful day spent with friends, including Jack Pierson and David Armstrong.” The photograph, officially titled Misty and Jimmy Paulette in a Taxi, NYC, is part of the Tate’s permanent collection, making Jimmy Paul something of a modern art icon. He demurs, “It is nice to be a part of Nan’s work and to be with my friends—very nice memories.” Still, it’s been shown at dozens of galleries over the past two decades, and not all galleries or museums get the story right. “I think that the photographs on their own have sometimes been misinterpreted. One museum said that we were coming from a long debauched night out. Trust me, that was not the case,” he said. “Gay Pride Parade. 12:00 noon.” VOGUE, April, 2018 Nan Goldin has been named the recipient of the 2022 Käthe Kollwitz Prize. The prestigious award, presented by the Berlin Academy of Arts, recognizes contemporary photographers who have made important contributions in their field. The photographer, filmmaker, and activist is being lauded for her intimate, pathbreaking work focused on the LQBTQ+ community. She will receive the prize, which is accompanied by an E12,000 ($12,800) award, in early 2023; an attendant exhibition of her work will run from January to March of that year. Nan Goldin is unquestionably one of the most influential photographers of the 20th century. She began her career in the 1970s, as she took candid shots of her circle of friends, frequently drag queens and trans women. Goldin is an example of an artist who works at the most intimate level: her life is her work and her work, her life. It is nearly impossible to discuss Goldin's photographs without referring to their subjects by name, as though the people pictured were one's own family and friends. It is this intimate and raw style for which Goldin has become internationally renowned. Her "snapshot"-esque images of her friends -- drag queens, drug addicts, lovers and family -- are intense, searing portraits that, together, make a document of Goldin's life. Goldin herself has commented on her photographic style and philosophy, saying, "My work originally came from the snapshot aesthetic . . . Snapshots are taken out of love and to remember people, places, and shared times. They're about creating a history by recording a history." All the Beauty and the Bloodshed is a 2022 American documentary film which explores the career of Nan Goldin and the fall of the Sackler family. The film is produced, co-edited and directed by Laura Poitras. Poitras said, "Nan's art and vision has inspired my work for years, and has influenced generations of filmmakers." The film premiered on September 3, 2022, at the 79th Venice International Film Festival, where it was awarded the Golden Lion, making it the second documentary (following Sacro GRA in 2013) to win the top prize at Venice. It also screened at the 2022 New York Film Festival, where it was the festival's centerpiece film and for which Goldin designed two official posters. The film was released in cinemas by Neon on November 23, 2022. It received acclaim from critics and was nominated for Best Documentary Feature at the 95th Academy Awards.SELECT RECENT SOLO EXHIBITIONS: 2026 'Nan Goldin: This Will Not End Well', Grand Palais, Paris, France (March -
