ICP Hosts Conversation on 'Here is New York' Photobook
The International Center of Photography (ICP) is hosting a conversation titled "Photobooks USA" featuring Jade Doskow, Mark Lubell, and David Campany, on the occasion of the exhibition "Photobooks USA: 2000-25." The discussion will focus on the influential photobook "Here is New York: A Democracy of Photographs," which documents the crowd-sourced photography exhibition that emerged just days after the September 11 attacks. Doskow will discuss her work photographing Freshkills Park post-9/11, while Campany and Lubell will reflect on the book's legacy since its publication in 2002. The book contains nearly a thousand images selected from over five thousand submitted by approximately three thousand photographers for an exhibition organized about a week after 9/11. The archive's significance is underscored by the notion that the collective body of images may come to represent the World Trade Center catastrophe. The event is part of the ongoing exhibition at ICP, which explores the evolution of photobooks in the United States from 2000 to 2025.
