Dirk Reinartz: New York 1974

The photographer Dirk Reinartz began to organize his photographs into books in 1985. Digging up images from a 1974 trip to New York, he exclaimed, "These really are my best pictures!" He chose several for publication but sadly died in 2004, leaving the project unfinished. This book is the completion of that project. Reinartz's New York photographs offer a highly personal tale of the city. Among the crush and crowds of people, he discovered special characters and expressive faces; and in the city that casts many shadows, he especially captured the fascinating play of light. Reinartz's photographs recall the atmosphere of a place that, in the middle of the 1970s, was full of promise and on the threshold of an urban revival.
