Subway

Humorous and intelligently crafted photographs of the passengers and environs of New York City's subway. COMMUTING IN New York City is a fact of life: every day millions of people board the subway en route to a plethora of destinations. But after a brief indoctrination into the system, subway travel becomes nearly second nature to the commuter, and it is rare that we examine our fellow passengers or our own place in the underground sea. In Subway, Peter Peter's exquisite photographs offer a fresh look at the world encompassed by the subway, where all walks of life shift and travel together, where a businessman reading his newspaper on the way home from work, a mother cradling a sleeping child after a trip to Coney Island, and three young boys dividing money among themselves temporarily share a common space. With this collection, Peter provides a carefully crafted portrait of ourselves that is contemplative, humorous, poetic, and quietly beautiful. Subway is a rare and candid celebration of life.Peter, Peter is the author of 'Subway' with ISBN 9780393325188 and ISBN 0393325180.
