Brooklyn is one of the most dynamic and ethnically diverse places on the planet. In fact, its estimated that one in every eight US families had relatives come through Brooklyn when settling in the country. Alex Webb and Rebecca Norris Webb have been photographing this New York City borough for the past seven years, creating a profound and vibrant portrait. Alex Webb has traversed every corner of the borough, exploring its tremendous diversity. This parallels his work made in the past forty years, traveling to photograph different cultures around the worldall of which are represented in the place he now calls home. Contrasting with this approach, Rebecca Norris Webb photographed the city within the city within the city, the green heart of Brooklynthe Botanic Garden, Green-Wood Cemetery, and Prospect Park, where Brooklynites of all walks of life cross paths as they find solace. Together, their photographs of Brooklyn tell a larger American story, one that touches on immigration, identity, and home. See more
