opened atDeutsches Haus at NYU in New York City !! For now, according to NYU Covid guidelines, this exhibition will only be open to NYU students, staff, and faculty, but the photographs will remain on display until the guidelines change. So, instead of a public opening we will eventually have a public closing event sometime in the future.
Meanwhile Deutsches Haus will present a virtual artist talk between journalist Claudia Steinberg and myself, to be announced soon. I will keep you posted. Find more information about the exhibition

With an introduction by New York journalist Claudia Steinberg.
I focused on the resilience of my fellow New Yorkers, on moments of normalcy under exceptional circumstances during the worst time of the pandemic. I kept a positive attitude walking around my chosen hometown during those challenging times and photographed New Yorkers doing what they always do: They keep going !!
I keep going too, by shooting new videos and photos about the book and publishing the results here on a regular basis. So this blog is not only about the book but also about my new photo adventures in New York City. Having worked as a professional still photographer for a large part of my life, I am starting to enjoy shooting small and entertaining videos as well and I will share them with you here too, like the one above.
I hope you enjoy my new blog and if you like, you can preview (and/or order) my book here !!
