This book offers a new perspective on New York, the American metropolis. This award-winning pictorial tribute to the world's most vertical city presents a unique introduction to New York's spectacular architecture. Using a vintage panoramic camera tilted ninety degrees. Hamann spent nearly five years painstakingly setting up shot after shot, often finding himself balancing precariously out a window ledge, patiently waiting for the perfect lighting conditions. His stark black and white compositions lend these photographs a dramatic, often dreamlike quality and offer unique reinterpretations of the world's most recognizable cityscapes. The result is an original and astonishing array of images, accompanied by quotations from some of the city's most ardent and well-known fans, that captures New York's towering presence in a way no other photographer ever has. This is a beautiful coffee table art book.
