Cities tell the stories silently sealed within their fortresses of brick, concrete, stone and steel through Henri Silberman’s dramatic and compelling visual prose. Born in Paris and raised in Brooklyn, Silberman has been photographing cities since high school, fascinated by their contradictions of culture, pace, architecture and human nature. Famous for his elegantly detailed, emotionally charged black and white images, Silberman particularly enjoys photographing the skyline, bridges and buildings of New York. Silberman’s work has been featured in a book, in movies, on television and in galleries and museums worldwide.
