I just came across a new body of work from Joel Meyerowitz that will be published by Aperture this fall. Legacy: The Preservation of Wilderness in New York City Parks contains 250 images from New York City’s parks and wild spaces, and from what little I’ve seen, it looks pretty spectacular. The subject of wilderness contained within urban areas is something I have been fascinated by for a long time, and I’m sure I’ll see a lot of familiar places. The book also contains information about the parks such as maps and historical information.
There is no specific release date mentioned, but it would seem to be sometime in the next month or two to accompany the show at the Museum of the City of New York, which opens October 9. The book looks great, but the box set, which includes an additional book and a signed inkjet print, is at the top of my wishlist.
Joel Meyerowitz is a superb photographer.
Surely will have achieved valuable snapshots.
The truth is that the box set is fantastic, and even more with the signed copy.

I need this.
Why do they keep coming out with these amazing books ! Don’t they realize some of us are struggling with rent…let alone pretty, mesmerizing, books ?
Alexi, you have some very interesting pictures on your website.
I’ve seen all the collections you’ve submitted.
Congratulations.
Carlos: I’ll report back after I see the show and the book in person. I think it’s a safe bet that it will be pretty fantastic.
Alexi: I know, I know. I’m sorry. I’ve got to stop posting this stuff.
Dalton: Don’t ever stop !
Carlos: Thanks, what collections are you referring to?
Hi Alexi, I mean I’ve seen all the series you have on your website.
