Already well-established in the fields of fashion, journalistic, and portrait photography in his native Berlin, Bernd Obermann moved to New York City in 1996 to experience the city’s vibrant mix of culture, ethnicity, and race. For the next five years he ventured out of his apartment nearly every day, camera in hand, to explore what New York had to offer. The results of these walks through city streets, parks, and neighborhoods are collected in this paean to a place whose energy and spirit are as palpable as they are memorable. "When I take a photograph of somebody I am also making a photo of a deeper level of myself." Says Obermann, "I believe in acceptance and not in analysis." From the Bronx to the Battery, from poor to rich, young to old, Obermann’s images reflect his own fascination and sense of discovery.
