The Tulsa Reader 1971–2010 is both a research project and an artist’s book, compiling decades of documentation surrounding Larry Clark’s seminal photobook Tulsa. First exhibited and published in 1971, Tulsa remains one of the most controversial and influential photographic works of its time, offering an unflinching portrayal of American youth and drug culture. This volume, compiled by Chelsea Spengemann, reproduces a wealth of archival material—including interviews, reviews, press releases, gallery memos, letters, and promotional content—tracing the book’s cultural impact and the discourse it generated over the years. Through the repetition of images, particularly the haunting portrait of a shirtless young man holding a pistol, The Tulsa Reader not only serves as a comprehensive reference but also forms a compelling collage that echoes the raw, compulsive energy of Clark’s original work.
