Bruce Gilden: Lost and Found
In the thick of New York: Bruce Gilden raw and unseen After recently moving house, Bruce Gilden discovered hundreds of contact prints and negatives in his personal archives, from work undertaken in New York, his native city, between 1978 and 1984. From these thousands of images, most of which are new even to their author, Gilden has selected around a hundred. Extending from the desire to revisit the work of his youth, this historic archive constitutes an inestimable treasure. An extraordinary New York is portayed here, revealing an unknown facet of Gilden's oeuvre. With all the energy of a young man in his thirties, and with no flash (before Gilden became famous for its almost systematic use...
A Beautiful Catastrophe
New York City, the unique metropolis that Le Corbusier has called a beautiful catastrophe,' is a natural home to Bruce Gilden. Since 1981, Gilden has been roaming the streets of the city, capturing its characters and eccentricities with hsi confrontational, highly energetic style and exuberant vision. In this new opus, A Beautiful Catastrophe, Magnum photographer Bruce Gilden celebrates a trademark style with abandon, firmly ensconsing him in the pantheon of New York City photographic poets.'
Facing New York
Bruce Gilden has always had a fascination with what he calls characters . So, for Bruce, New York, with its famous idiosyncratic citizenry and the unique energy of its streets, proved to be a giant creative playground.

For this new edition Bruce has replaced two images, of which he says that he just can t understand why they didn t make his original selection.

Face
A defining characteristic of Bruce Gilden's photography is his creative attraction to what he calls 'characters', and he has been tracking them down all through his career. Growing up in Brooklyn with what he describes as a 'tough guy' of a father, Bruce Gilden developed a love of the streets, often calling them his 'second home'. The unique energy of the streets mesmerised Bruce, an energy that can momentarily expose something inside people that generally stays hidden.

Bruce Gilden
Named for one of the most intellectually challenging board games in the world, played primarily in China, Japan, and Korea by players who use black-and-white stones to acquire territory, Go presents Bruce Gilden's photographic explorations of the darker side of Japan. In striking, full-page, black-and-white images, Gilden documents the brutal reality of a Japanese street. In-your-face pictures of Yakuza (mobsters), Bosozoku (members of biker gangs), and street people -- characters who are alternately intimidating, bloodied, tatooed, frightening, and disheveled -- are sporadically interspersed with manga cartoons for a revelatory glimpse at a Japan that looks nothing like its familiar image of calm, orderly, hyper-efficient perfection.
After the Off
A rivetting and dynamic portrait of rural Irish life from Magnum photographer Bruce Gilden.
