Artist of the Week: August 10, 2018

William Meyers
“Glendale, Queens, May 4, 2001”

This photo is part of the series “Outer Boroughs: New York Beyond Manhattan.” Through compelling streetscapes, Meyers pays tribute to the outer boroughs, filling a void in the photographic tradition of the changing city. The New York Public Library acquired the series for its permanent collection in 2008, and it was published as a book by Damiani in 2015.
