In this dark, moody, neon-lit book (with a foreword by Chris Kraus), the research photographs and finished works of American painter Jane Dickson are placed side by side. Her subject: 'Sodom on the Hudson', the seedy, criminal night-time world of Manhattan in the 70s and 80s. -Tatler, "Times Square was not always a sensory overload tourist destination in central Manhattan, and this book is akin to a time machine that takes readers back to a time when New York City was a rich hotbed for culture" - Lonely Planet, "In this dark, moody, neon-lit book (with a foreword by Chris Kraus), the research photographs and finished works of American painter Jane Dickson are placed side by side. Her subject: 'Sodom on the Hudson', the seedy, criminal night-time world of Manhattan in the 70s and 80s." - Tatler, Jane Dickson in Times Square makes for a fittingly complex portrait of her work and of the city. Photographed, drawn, painted and observed at a time that is now distant enough to be flattened and romanticised; Dickson's work shows the potential of capturing a city - its flaws and tensions, the bright lights and wild energy, a little bit out of control. -It's Nice That

Synopsis
Jane Dickson in Times Square is a time machine back to a New York City that was truly wild: lawless, manic, sometimes squalid, sometimes magnificent featuring a career of artwork by the artist., Artist Jane Dickson is a deep-rooted and central voice in New York City's complex creative history. In the late 1970s and early '80s, she was part of the movement joining the legacies of downtown art, punk rock, and hip hop through her involvement with the Colab art collective, the Fashion Moda gallery, and legendary exhibitions including the Real Estate Show and Times Square Show. In the midst of this groundbreaking work, Dickson lived, worked and raised two children in an apartment on 43rd Street and 8th Avenue at a time when the neighborhood was at its most infamous, crime-ridden, and spectacularly seedy. Through it all, Jane photographed, drew and painted extraordinary scenes of life in Times Square. These works, many of which are reproduced here for the first time, include candid documentary snapshots, roughly vibrant charcoal sketches, and paintings created on surfaces ranging from sandpaper to Brillo pads. Featuring a foreword by Chris Kraus and afterword by Fab Five Freddy, Jane Dickson in Times Square is a time machine back to a New York City that was truly wild: lawless, manic, sometimes squalid, sometimes magnificent., Artist Jane Dickson is a deep-rooted and central voice in New York City?s complex creative history.
