iN-PUBLiC | Joel Meyerowitz 1981 Film

A very interesting film about Joel Meyerowitz back in 1981, in New York streets, can be found in iN-Public.

Filmed in 1981 and never before made public, the film follows Joel Meyerowitz on the streets of New York accompanied by the curator and writer Colin Westerbeck. The film gives an insight in to Joel’s approach to the street and a glimpse of his working methods including the small 35mm Leica and the large plate camera.

Created by Robert Gilberg, the film was intended to be the first of a series about ‘American Photographers’ but was never taken up by a TV network at the time. The original tapes re emerged after Gilberg’s death 30 years later
