Szabo’s black-and-white images evoke a dreamworld of adolescence as observed by a trusted outsider. Teens pose and smoke with a playful insouciance, lounge on the beach, and party at a Rolling Stones concert. Intrigued by the ambiguities of adolescent life, Szabo portrays a phase of transition shaped by self-consciousness and self-expression, and gestures to the inner depths beyond the reach of his camera. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFirst published in various volumes between the 1970s and the 2000s, Szabo’s pictures influenced many photographers and filmmakers.
