Serie Dr. Blankman's New York

Tod Papageorge | 1966-1967
One of the few color works by a photographer whose career has been marked mainly by black and white. It documents the urban life of New York in the seventies through an intimate and personal look. With a focus on the everyday, he shows the streets of the city, its inhabitants and their moments of vulnerability, creating a visual reflection on society and the rhythm of New York life.
