Hidden pockets of wilderness exist within New York City, and Joel Meyerowitz invites us to explore them. This stunning collection stems from a unique commission by the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation to document the city's parks. Meyerowitz focuses on the 8,700 acres across the five boroughs that remain in their original state, as well as areas within parks that have been allowed to return to nature. Drawing from his childhood memories of a New York filled with "green space—open and wild, alive with rabbits, migratory birds, snakes, frogs and the occasional skunk," he captures the essence of the natural world, its unpredictability, and its mystery. Through a rich array of images showcasing parks, shorelines, and forests, Meyerowitz's work transports viewers into the heart of a lush wilderness, illustrating these natural spaces as integral to urban life today. An award-winning photographer born in 1938, Meyerowitz has exhibited in over 350 museums and galleries globally, received multiple prestigious fellowships and awards, and published more than 15 books, including notable works such as Cape Light and The World Trade Center Archive. He resides in New York.
