An immersion into the vibrant world of Harry Gruyaert’s New York.
For over fifty years, Harry Gruyaert has wandered New York City’s streets, capturing its dazzling contrasts – from towering skylines and neon-lit diners to multicultural neighbourhoods and fleeting street scenes. Designed as a large-format visual album, this book presents each photograph across a double-page spread, evoking the rhythm and energy of a cinematic storyboard.
Accompanying this striking visual journey are fictional vignettes by acclaimed filmmaker Cédric Klapisch, blurring the lines between reality and imagination. A city of endless spectacle, New York becomes a global stage in Gruyaert’s hands – alive with drama, diversity and colour.
