This intimate photographic study examines the detectives working for the NYPDs most prestigious homicide division in Brooklyn, a profession that has been woven into American mythology. Wenner was the first photographer in the history of the NYPD to be granted unprecedented access to the division. In the long-lived tradition of photographers like Weegee and filmmakers like Martin Scorcese revealing New York Citys dark side, Wenner spent two years capturing these men up close and behind-the-scenes for the first time, documenting their investigative work and its ugly counterpart murder all within Americas most iconic city.
Theo Wenner studied film and photography under the iconic artist Stephen Shore at Bard College. His work has been featured in Document Journal, i-D, Self Service, M, LeMonde, and Rolling Stone, amongst others; his recent advertising work includes campaigns for Calvin Klein, Chanel, Chloe, and Supreme.
