Rizzoli Bookstore presents David Godlis, Luc Sante and Chris Stein in conversation for the virtual launch of 'Godlis Streets'

Thursday, November 19 at 5PM EST, Rizzoli Bookstore presents renowned photographer David Godlis in conversation with contributors Luc Sante and Chris Stein for the online book launch of Godlis Streets. The event will be moderated by Reel Art Press editor Dave Brolan on Zoom. Please register here.

David Godlis has been taking photographs on the streets of New York for the past 40 years. "I am a Street Photographer. I walk around with a camera and shoot what I see. I've been doing that ever since i bought my first 35mm camera in 1970."

Godlis Streets is the first book dedicated to the artist and photographer's incredible body of work and focuses on the 1970s and 1980s. Godlis's street photographs from this time capture moments of mundanity, humor and pathos; his gift for acute observation and impeccable framing elevating these images to the extraordinary. A definition of what sincere street photography can and should be, Godlis Streets is the very best photography of its kind. The book is introduced by a foreword by Luc Sante and an afterword by Chris Stein.
