From the 1930s to the 1960s his images of murder, mayhem and the underside of New York set a new standard for immediacy and wit - and influenced a generation of of imitators. Working with a Speed Graphic and an on-camera flash, he shot in a stark, punchy, in-your-face style, often capturing his subjects in a startling blast of light. This retrospective showcases his jolting work - and captures bygone New York at its most raucous, dangerous and outrageous. Here are Weegee's grisly murders, shocking accidents, gawking crowds and other signature crime-and-disaster shots, along with his equally arresting human interest and high society images - 265 high-impact images in all. The volume includes interpretive essays, an annotated chronology and other documentation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weegee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57624669815166,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/files\/miles-barth-weegee_s-world-front-cover_1.jpg?v=1782755362","url":"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/en-us\/products\/weegees-world","provider":"Setanta Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
