Reflecting New York book

I am happy to announce my new little book
Reflecting New York
It is available worldwide on the self-publishing online platform blurb and can be previewed and/or ordered here
With an introduction by New York journalist Claudia Steinberg

About the Book:
Using a hand held mirror in locations around New York photographer Stefan Falke invites distant buildings, structures or other visuals into the main photo to create a viewing experience that requires a second look. At times the reflection in the mirror becomes the main photo. His goal is to visually loosen up the obvious, to create images that journalist Claudia Steinberg described with these words: “What pleasurable confusion, what wonderful bewilderment, such visual richness!”. He is letting his creativity run wild while hunting for visual angles for this personal book project, and although it is a difficult undertaking working with two images at once the results often surprise him as much as he hopes they will surprise and intrigue the viewer.

Keep Going New York !!


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.

Welcome to my Keep Going New York !! blog

Welcome to my Keep Going New York !! blog

I created this new blog to showcase and promote my new book

Keep Going New York !!

I self-published the book on the print-on-demand platform Blurb.com

in January 2021, after photographing the streets of New York during the pandemic from March – December 2020.

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 !!

Best, Stefan Falke
