THE CITY
Mitch Epstein has showed at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, among other places. In 1977 his book “Vietnam: A Book of Changes” was named as one of the ten most beautiful American publications of the year. With THE CITY Epstein returns to his own home town, New York. The series is a combination of documentary work, visual diary fragments, and absurd situations. With the city as background for many stories, Epstein brings private and public life face to face and gives shape to both the intimate core and the anonymous skin of the Big Apple.
