About the work

The American photographer Meyerowitz called his penchant for the street an addiction. In the midst of urban hustle and bustle he was able to capture a striking composition in a split second, such as this one during a parade in New York. Meyerowitz did not photograph the procession, but rather a group of people watching it. Their movements and the direction in which they look determine the dynamic of the image. Life on the street itself thus becomes the main subject.
