Title: Reinier Gerritsen - Wall Street Stop. Essay Fritz Gierstberg. - Signed
Description: Ostfildern, Hatje Cantz, 2010. 24.5 x 30.5 cm. Hardcover. Illustrated in colour throughout. - Signed at Unseen - When the financial crisis of 2009 was at its peak, Reinier Gerritsen took photographs of people in the subway between Wall Street and Grand Central Station in the New York banking district. We see a variety of introverted commuters in unposed group portraits, reflecting the state of shock of a world unable to comprehend the collapse of the global financial system. In his choice of subject, Gerritsen consciously places himself within the tradition of documentary photography from Walker Evans to Bruce Davidson and their fascination with everyday metropolitan life. - Fine copy.
