Starting at the young age of 15, Brooklyn-born photographer Jamel Shabazz identified the core subject of his lifelong investigation: the men and women, young and old, who invest the streets of New York with a high degree of theater and style, mixing traditions and cultures.

A formidable archive of New York’s communities in the outer boroughs, this exhibition pays homage to Shabazz’s illustrious career of over 40 years documenting the vibrant interaction of New Yorkers with their neighborhoods.

Shabazz has been one of the first photographers to realize the joyous, infectious potential of youth culture in neighborhoods such as Red Hook, Brownsville, Flatbush, Fort Greene, Harlem, Manhattan’s Lower East Side, and the Grand Concourse section of the Bronx.
