Description

Brooklyn has seen exponential change over the last fifteen years, and this book presents the most efficient work of the photographers from in all places the world who have been capturing those changes and movements in cityscapes, portraits, vignettes, and process-oriented photography.

Brooklyn Photographs Now reflects the avant-garde spirit of the city’s hippest borough, containing up to now unpublished work by well-known and emerging recent artists. The book presents 250 images by more than seventy-five established and new artists, including Mark Seliger, Jamel Shabazz, Ryan McGinley, Mathieu Bitton, and Michael Eastman, among many others. The book documents the physical and architectural landscape and reflects and explores an off-centered—and subsequently a less-seen and more innovative—perspective of how artists view this borough in the twenty-first century. This is the “now” Brooklyn that we have got yet to see in pictures: what might appear to be an alternative city but is in reality the crux of how it visually functions in the present day. This unique collection of images is the easiest book for the photo lover and sophisticated tourist alike.
