Photographer Joshua Lutz by Lost At E Minor
Meadowlands, a monograph by New York photographer, Joshua Lutz, is a collection of photos taken of the 32-square-mile area between New York City and New Jersey. It's a locale that most New Yorkers have never heard of or taken the time to visit, unless you are a Giants or Jets football fan.
This project—ten years in the making—includes an introduction by Robert Sullivan, who describes life in the Meadowlands as being "more resilient than regular life." The colours and subject matter are rather subdued and quiet, but we find the images creep into out minds when we least expect it.
