Synopsis

Joel Meyerowitz is a renowned American photographer whose work has been featured in over 350 exhibitions worldwide. As one of the most influential figures in U.S. street photography, Meyerowitz has captivated audiences with his ability to uncover extraordinary moments within the everyday, transforming fleeting scenes into timeless masterpieces.

In Meyerowitz’s words, "I prefer to say MAKE photographs, not take." This philosophy has guided him in mastering the art of street photography, creating images that reveal the beauty and complexity of life, whether in colour or black and white. His Leica camera became an extension of his vision, leading him to moments that others might overlook, capturing them with remarkable clarity and composition.

This exhibition is a tribute to Joel Meyerowitz’s extraordinary body of work, his unwavering commitment to the art of photography, and his lasting legacy in the world of street photography. It also marks the celebration of 70 years of the Leica M system, a groundbreaking tool instrumental in bringing Meyerowitz’s visionary work to life.
