Ari Marcopoulos | Zines

In his newest zine, Ari Marcopoulos: Zines, Marcopoulos captures life before, during, and after the pandemic by combining both previously published and unpublished zines gathered from 2015 to 2021. Zines positions Marcopoulos as a witness to the time and an agent of ways of interpreting it.

Book Review: Ari Marcopoulos

Ari Marcopoulos is a self-taught photographer who was born in Amsterdam in 1957. In 1980 when he was 23, he moved to New York City and became a prominent photographer for hip-hop culture, skater culture, snowboard culture, and fashion. His recently released book, Polaroids 92-95 (CA) is one part of a two-part series documenting the skating scene during the early 1990s. One book takes place in New York and one in California, and while the New York book’s photographs were taken from a single skate park, the Brooklyn Banks, the CA version takes place in a multiple across the Californian coast.
