Clark has also produced films; Kids (1994), based on his experiences with New York City teenagers and their culture of drugs, alcohol, and sex, and Another Day in Paradise (1999). Cover image from Tulsa made into a 23" x 18" poster from an exhibition at the Robert Freidus Gallery. His large-scale retrospective “Kiss The Past Hello” was exhibited at the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris in 2010, and he has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Galerie Urbi et Orbi in Paris, the Taka Ishii Gallery in Tokyo, and at the International Center of Photography in New York.

Although this book predates his iconic films by at least two decades, Tulsa is quintessential Clark.

A near fine copy with crisp and fresh pages, and only light rubbing to the spine ends; in the original dust jacket with wear and a few tears to the spine ends, very light rubbing on the corners. During the 1960s, Clark documented the culture of drug use and illicit activity of his friends in Tulsa, and his photographs from those years were published as Tulsa (1971). It has been claimed that thanks to Gene Pitney's 1960 song " Twenty Four Hours from Tulsa", Tulsa then represented "young love and family values"; [3] Clark's book challenged this with scenes of young people having sex, shooting up drugs, and playing with guns.Here, the early black-and-white vérité style is replaced by a lingering, brightly-hued gaze that sometimes looks like a street-fashion shoot. With an extensive collection of more than 106,000 rare and unique volumes relating to the history of art, the Jean Outland Chrysler Library is one of the most significant art libraries in the South.

This is the title as given on the title page; the front cover and spine both read Photography from 1839 to Today: George Eastman House, Rochester, NY. The raw, haunting images taken in 1963, 1968, and 1971 document a youth culture progressively overwhelmed by self-destruction and are as moving and disturbing today as when they first appeared. When someone I knew would die, which happened a lot, I'd think they were one of the lucky ones," he told me. Criticism of Tulsa has not been limited to a visceral rejection of images of drugtaking, casual sex, and gunplay; Martin Parr and Gerry Badger say that the "incessant focus [of Tulsa and Clark's 1983 book Teenage Lust] on the sleazy aspect of the lives portrayed, to the exclusion of almost anything else — whether photographed from the 'inside' or not — raises concerns about exploitation and drawing the viewer into a prurient, voyeuristic relationship with the work.In 2010, a retrospective of Clark's work, Kiss the past hello, was held at the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris. Later better known for directing the movie Kids, Clark was a Tulsa native and a drug addict during the period (1963–1971) when he took the photographs.
