Dear New York
$65.00
ln 2025, Brandon Stanton, creator of Humans of New York and author of four number one NYT bestselling books, will publish his most personal work yet: Dear New York, a photographic love letter to the city he has embraced. Opening with a deeply moving prologue that reads like a train ride through the city, the book expands into nearly 500 full-colour pages of portraits and stories from the streets of New York. And, for the first time ever - unlike Stanton's past books, which were curated from his massive body of online work - over 75 per cent of the stories in Dear New York have never been published before.
Stanton created the groundbreaking first volume of Humans of New York in 2013, only three years after beginning his photography career. Called 'one of the most important art projects of the decade' by The Washington Post, its unique combination of intimate portraiture and on-the-spot interviews spawned a style of storytelling that has become a hallmark of our digital age. Twelve years later, having now interviewed more than 10,000 people around the world, a seasoned artist returns home with a very personal mission: to use everything he's learned to capture the city he loves most.
