| | | | APERTUREJeff Chien-Hsing Liao: New YorkText by Justin Davidson, Sean Corcoran.
 With painstaking care and the use of multiple exposures, Jeff Chien-Hsing Liao crafts each of his images with technological precision. Shooting primarily with a large-format film camera, then scanning and digitally editing the negatives, Liao creates enormous, detail-driven panoramas of the social and urban landscape of New York. This oversized monograph includes photographs taken over the last ten years. From rehabilitated Coney Island to the Grand Concourse in the Bronx, from the demise of Shea Stadium in Queens to the newly rebuilt One World Trade Center, Liao has created a lasting document of a significant period of transformation in New York's skyline and social fabric. His unique perspective on New York is both personal and hyperreal, managing to capture both the lasting charm of the city's well-known landmarks as well as the moment when New York entered the twenty-first century.
Jeff Chien-Hsing Liao (born 1977) first received recognition with his series Habitat 7, which was featured in the September 11, 2005, issue of The New York Times Magazine as the winner of the Capture the Times photography contest. His work has been exhibited at the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles; Museum of the City of New York; Queens Museum of Art; and Bronx Museum of the Arts. Born in Taiwan and raised in Vancouver, Canada, Liao lives in Queens, New York.

| | | FROM THE ARTBOOK BLOG CORY REYNOLDS | DATE 12/10/2014 In Jeff Chien-Hsing Liao: New York , essayist and Museum of the City of New York curator Sean Corcoran writes, "Jeff Liao is part of a long and rich tradition of photographers who have chosen New York as their subject. Yet he has been able to create his own distinct and uniquely sweeping vision of the city by employing the panoramic format and a saturated color palette. Like the melting pot they depict, Liao's photographs from all boroughs and all time periods are mixed together in this volume. While the city's architecture can be dominating and overwhelming, it structures the day-to-day experiences of the more than eight million people who live and work here. This selection demonstrates Liao's attuned sense of place and his flexible picture-making strategies; he adjusts his approach for each situation. With their fluid sense of time , his photographs remind us that New York is a constantly changing organism."
