Revesz: NEW YORK
A captivating new collection of photographs showing New York City from
a fresh perspective.
In this small book are some of the most beguiling and intriguing photographs
of New York City ever taken. Revesz is a prominent Hungarian photographer,
recently moved to the United States. With a photographic eye not unlike
that of his fellow countryman Andre Kertesz, he captures the essence
of the city in an oblique and often surprising way, whether depicting
a scene outside the Metropolitan Museum (as seen from the inside) or
the towers of the World Trade center, seen almost coincidentally in
the background of pictures which are really about something else.
The poetry and charm of these images will speak both to New Yorkers
and visitors alike.
