About This Item
N.p.: N.p., 1970. Vintage double-weight oversize photograph of directors Donald Cammell, Dennis Hopper, Alejandro Jodorowsky, and Kenneth Anger at a press shoot arranged by Anger in 1970. Annotations on the verso in the hand of photographer Myriam Gibril, identifying subjects.
A remarkable group photograph of four seminal counterculture figures at the height of their powers. In the hopes of raising funds for his planned film "Lucifer Rising," Anger arranged a film screening in his basement apartment, accompanied by a press shoot with a number of prominent directors, including Cammell, Hopper, and Jodorowsky. The stunt proved successful, helping Anger convince the National Film Finance Corporation to give him £15,000. The resultant film-starring Cammell as the god Osiris-would be completed two years later, in 1972.
Photographer Myriam Gibril was romantically linked to Cammell for a period of time. She also appeared in Anger's "Lucifer Rising" in the role of Isis.
11 x 8.5 inches. Fine.
