Livin’ in the hood – New York Street Life 1990 & 2013/2014 by Jörg Rubbert and Jürgen Bürgin at Kettler Verlag

Livin’ in the Hood chron­i­cles the per­son­al New York adven­tures of the two pho­tog­ra­phers Jür­gen Bür­gin and Jörg Rub­bert. It leads the read­er on a visu­al jour­ney back in time to the years 1990 and ²⁰¹³⁄₁₄. This book of pho­tographs doc­u­ments defin­ing events and reports on inspir­ing encoun­ters from a city that trans­formed itself dur­ing that era. The vol­ume not only show­cas­es pic­tures tak­en by the two street pho­tog­ra­phers but also shares per­son­al anec­dotes and sto­ries as well as addi­tion­al texts and infor­ma­tion.

Tak­en as a whole, it affords the read­er the priv­i­lege of div­ing into the real­i­ty of life in New York in the years 1990 and ²⁰¹³⁄₁₄. It con­veys an impres­sion of the “look and feel” of New York in those years and draws com­par­isons to the social and polit­i­cal changes of the time.
