In 2010, photographer Dan Martensen was introduced to the Angulo
brothers by filmmaker Crystal Moselle, who had just begun work on
the hit documentary The Wolfpack. Chronicling the lives of the six
home-schooled boys who recreated cult-classic films, fashioning
props as well as costumes all from the confines of their Lower East
Side apartment (inside of which their father once locked them for a
year), Moselle's unflinching portrayal documents the power of
imagination to overcome the realities of a troubled upbringing. At
the same time, Martensen began photographing the boys, capturing
the cinema-inspired world they had created, while also documenting
their first forays into to the world outside. Taken between 2010
and 2015, the resulting collection of intimate portraits and still
lifes that comprise Martensen's The Wolfpack adds yet another layer
to the captivating story of the Angulo brothers and is a bold
testament to the enduring spirit of creativity. Dan Martensen was
born and raised in Pleasantville, New York, and studied photography
at the Rhode Island School of Design. Since the early 2000s, he has
been travelling and photographing across America, principally in
the Southwest, seeking out the visual paradoxes and embedded
histories of the region, taking cues from legendary chroniclers of
the American vernacular such as William Eggleston, Joel Sternfeld
and Stephen Shore. A selection of 60 photographs from this project
was published in Martensen's book Photographs from the American
Southwest (Damiani).
