72 Girls and some Boys Who Could Be Models

In the winter of 2005, Belgian photographer Anne Daems lived in New York City for six months on an art residency grant from ISCP. In this small book of street photography, Daems catches young New Yorkers unawares on the sidewalks of Soho, in the subway, under scaffolding, in traffic, and through shop windows. These delicate surveillance snapshots raise questions about voyeurism, youth, conventional beauty, and how we tend to classify strangers. Included in the book is an interview between Daems and artist Dan Graham.
