Andee Eye: Photos and Tales From the Archive, 1965–1978 by Andee Nathanson
A poetic overview of an incredible moment in cultural history, Andee Eye features a rich and enticing world—icons of music, art, fashion, and film.
Andee Eye is a photography book featuring the work of Andee Nathanson from 1965-1978. Whether she was exploring the Joshua Tree Desert with Mick Jagger, Marianne Faithfull and Gram Parsons or touring with Mad Dogs and Englishmen’s Leon Russell and Joe Cocker, Andee’s photographs resonate with unparalleled intimacy.
Culled from a vast archive, Andee Eye offers the first glimpse of Andee’s incredible collection of images. This is a young woman’s journey into the dream of the 60’s and 70’s¾vivid, candid moments captured through unprecedented access and a deep connection to the subject matter.
Throughout her youth, she continually photographed her close friends who happened to include Donovan, Dennis Hopper, Ringo Starr, Papa John Phillips and many more.
During this era, Andee would also document Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers for their debut album, Alice Cooper’s stay at the iconic Landmark Hotel, the covers of the legendary Frank Zappa album Hot Rats, and her journey through the back roads of a lost America.
A model, muse and artist herself, Andee’s lens explores locations from Rome to London, Los Angeles to Morocco. The result is a grand adventure amid the wide expanse of the California High Desert, the upper-class enclaves of British society, and along the palm-lined curves of Mulholland Drive.
A really beautiful volume – highly recommended.
