we all shine on

“When George was a kid, he used to follow me and my first girlfriend Cynthia. We would come out of the art school together and he'd be hovering around. Cyn and I would be going to a coffee shop or a movie and George would follow us down the street two hundred yards behind. Cyn would say, 'Who is that guy? What does he want?' And I'd say, 'He just wants to hang out. Should we take him with us?' She'd say, 'Oh, OK, let's take him to the bloody movies.' So we'd allow him to come to the movies with us. That's the sort of relationship it was.” (John Lennon in an interview with Playboy, 1980)

Long before mobile phone, Stuart was taking selfies.  This is one of them.  Here you can see the intensity of his mood, having positioned himself perfectly in front of three grey canvases.  Light hanging overhead further intensifies the moment, cigarette burning.—Diane Vitale
