American photographer Larry Fink (b.1941) is the Jack Kerouac of photography. This accessible monograph reviews his 40-year career as a photographer, during which he celebrated the expressiveness of the human body and its colourful and energetic sensuality.

The genius of Fink lies in the way he melds social commentary with exquisite pictorial composition of his subjects
