Everything is a four-decade retrospective through the inimitable career of Christopher Makos, taking us inside the world of one of downtown New York's premier photographers. Christopher Makos is one of Glitterati Incorporated's top authors and will generate a ton of press and publicity for Everything. Internationally renowned photographer Christopher Makos compiles here the finest of his black and white photography. With startling innovation and an eye for the cutting edge, Makos has made an extraordinary contribution to modern photography, continuously pushing the boundaries of his medium. Everything: The Black and White Monograph celebrates the work and influence of the man Andy Warhol called "the most modern photographer in America." Everything is a comprehensive survey of Makos' photographic work from 1973 to the present. As Peter Wise writes, it is a collection of images "so distinctly of a particular moment that a whole context is encapsulated" that communicate "something singular about a cultural moment." This compilation, the first volume in a projected series, is unbound by "categories, themes, or specific subject matter." Instead, it serves as a period piece, a vision of a particular time and place assembled by the man Doston Rader says is "widely considered the most important and gifted photographer of his generation." Subjects; Makos, Christopher 1948. Photography, Artistic. Black-and-white photography.

A denizen of Andy Warhol's Factory in the 1970s and '80s, Makos hobnobbed with Liz and Mick, Bowie and Basquiat; his glam photos from the period mix casual chic with élan. He also captures cool slices of mundanity (for jet-setters, that is). Lots of cute dogs and ponies, too.' --American Photo Magazine
Shooters from any era will find inspiration in this versatile photographer's ability to transition seamlessly from the studio to the street, from artificial to natural lighting, from people and puppies to garish automotive grillwork-all in living black and white.' --Jim Cornfield, Rangefinder
'Everything: The Black and White Monograph is a retrospective of three decades in photographer Christopher Makos' illustrious career. Weighing in at 352 pages, with 248 photographs, Everything is printed in quadrotone for the richest, most effective reproduction of Makos' black and white work.' --Radar Online
Christopher Makos is known internationally for his explosive and innovative photography. This is his first monograph as photographer and artist. He apprenticed with photographer Man Ray in Paris early in his career, collaborated with Andy Warhol, and first introduced Warhol to photography. He also familiarised Warhol to the work of both Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring. Makos' work has been in the permanent collections of more than 100 museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art as well as major private collections, including those of Pedro Almodovar and Gianni Versace. His photographs of Warhol, Haring, Tennessee Williams, and others have been auctioned regularly at Sotheby's. Warhol once called Makos the "most modern photographer in America." Here, his work and influence is celebrated.
