A love letter to New York City, Two Way Street merges two bodies of Gretchen Graces street photography revealing the iconic moments of the everyday.
Gretchen Grace is an American photographer living in New York City. Two Way Street combines early black and white film work from the 1990s/early 2000s, and more recent street abstractions captured digitally. Through candid portraits of the people of New York and found compositions from the fabric of the city, the combined work tells the timeless story of the everyday in the city that never sleeps.
With essays by Julia Coddington and Carin Berger.
