PATRICK DONOVAN, A MULTIFACETED BROOKLYN-BASED ARTIST, ISN'T JUST A PHOTOGRAPHER - HE'S A POET, SONGWRITER, AND PUBLISHED AUTHOR WHO CAPTURES THE WORLD THROUGH A VINTAGE LENS. HIS WORK BLENDS INFLUENCES FROM THE 1970S WITH ICONIC NYC NIGHTLIFE, CRAFTING CAPTIVATING FASHION EDITORIALS AND SELF-RESTORED DOLL PORTRAITS THAT ECHO RICHARD AVEDON'S LEGACY. BUT PATRICK GOES BEYOND AESTHETICS, PRIORITIZING AUTHENTICITY IN BOTH HIS INTIMATE PORTRAITS AND HIS DOCUMENTATION OF THE CITY'S RAW ENERGY. THIS ARTIST, WHO DRAWS INSPIRATION FROM THE SERENITY OF COASTAL MAINE, MASTERFULLY COMBINES PEACE WITH THE ELECTRIC BUZZ OF NEW YORK CITY AND ITS CAPTIVATING RESIDENTS.

IN 2017, PATRICK'S WORK CAUGHT THE EYE OF ACCLAIMED PHOTOGRAPHER NAN GOLDIN, FOLLOWING THE RELEASE OF HIS FIRST MONOGRAPH, SAD BOYS CLUB. SHE HIRED PATRICK AS HER ASSISTANT AFTER “RECEIVING A VISION" FROM PHOTOGRAPHER DAVID ARMSTRONG.

PATRICK'S WORK HAS APPEARED IN COSMOPOLITAN, THE BOSTON GLOBE, PAPER, V MAGAZINE, BILLBOARD, OUT, NY MAGAZINE, AND INTO. HIS MONOGRAPHS HAVE SOLD EXCLUSIVELY AT THE LANDMARK STRAND BOOKSTORE IN NEW YORK CITY.
