Nancy Spero #4


Nancy Spero's studio, Greenwich Village, New York, 2010.

"Nearly four decades ago, when artists Leon Golub and Nancy Spero moved into the Greenwich Village loft they used both as studio and living space, the Village was still “the Village” and neighbors were more Allen Ginsberg than Senor Swanky’s.
....
The loft is a “true artist’s studio,” says Ms. Goldberg, and to best display the loft’s charm and grit she enlisted the help of a client, photographer Simon Watson, who agreed to photograph the loft for free as an homage to Spero. “I would never have been able to afford Simon; he’s a big deal. But he’s a great admirer of Nancy’s work and so he did them as a huge kindness.”

A direct elevator opens onto the 3,200-square-foot loft. The main open workspace feeds into two small bedrooms set against the backdrop of exposed brick, hardwood floors and 12-foot ceilings. Golub’s work has been removed from the space and archived since his death five years ago, while Spero’s touch remains in the studio, alongside remnants of her work and her used supplies-living ghosts of the artist and her beloved.
