RYAN MCGINLEY "LILY (WOODS)", 2005Arguably the most renowned photographer of his generation, Ryan McGinley (b. 1977) was the youngest artist to ever have a solo show at the Whitney in 2003. Over the past two decades, McGinley has proven himself to be the successor to both Nan Goldin and Larry Clark with a unique documentary style that portrays the idealisms of a generation. McGinley's work captures the optimism, rebellion and hedonism experienced by friends and lovers in New York
