The New York Pigeon: Behind the Feathers de Andrew Garn

DescripciĂłn - CrĂ­ticas 'Brilliant.' --It's Nice That 'Features shots so detailed that they make the often maligned bird look almost exotic.' --Wall Street Journal

'Garn wants to give New York City pigeons a public relations makeover, urging people to stop and take a good look at them.' --amNewYork

'Showcases their overlooked beauty in a series of sometimes humorous, sometimes startling images.' --Atlas Obscura

'Puts this sometimes reviled and nearly always unheeded bird on a pedestal, bringing to light the nature in the midst of America's most populous city. The book promises that the 'savvy, graceful, kind pigeon will be invisible no more.'' --PDN 'Far from fluff balls of grays, Garn's subjects are pristine models who show off stunning, unexpected hallmarks: lavender eyes, heart-shaped wings, glam ruffled feet that recall outlandish rave boots.' --Hyperallergic

Included in Buzzfeed News' best photography books from 2018: '25 Photography Books That Will Change Your View Of The World' Included in The Stategist's 'Year's Most Giftable Coffee-Table Books (So Far)' 4/19/18As seen in: The New York Times, WNYC, Alternet, FOX 5, Brokelyn, NY1, Buzzfeed, BBC, The Guardian, My Modern Met, El PaĂ­s, Chronogram, CBS New York, National Geographic Reseña del editor The New York Pigeon is a photography book that reveals the unexpected beauty of the omnipresent pigeon as if Vogue magazine devoted its pages to birds, rather than fashion models. In spite of pigeons' ubiquity in New York and other cities, we never really see them closely and know very little about their function in the urban ecosystem. This book brings to light the intriguing history, behavior and splendor of a bird that we frequently overlook.The New York Pigeon reveals the unexpected beauty of our omnipresent pigeon. Employing exquisite portraiture that one might find in a fashion magazine, the book features this underappreciated urban bird in a fresh, glamorous light.Finally, the much maligned pigeon gets its 15 minutes. “stool pigeon...” “rats with wings...” Why? What did pigeons ever do to deserve such disrespect? (They mind their own business, they saved lives in World War I and II, and they’re beautiful to boot.) Andrew Garn seeks to right this egregious wrong— through his keen eye, the pigeon is photographed in all its unexpected glory—elevated to its rightful place as a wondrous being of beauty and grace, soaring though time and space. You will never look at pigeons the same way again.In spite of pigeons’ ubiquity in New York and other cities, we never really see them closely and know very little about their function in the urban ecosystem. For many New Yorkers, pigeons are the “gateway drug” to nature. The result of eight years of passionate inquiry,The New York Pigeon is a photographic study of the birds’ power and allure. The dramatic, hyper-real individual studio portraits capture their personalities, expressiveness, glorious feather iridescence, and deeply hued eyes. High-speed strobe photography illustrates the pigeons’ graceful flight and dramatic wing movements. While The New York Pigeon is primarily a photography book, it also tells part of the 5,000-year story of the feral pigeon and their long association with humans. How did Harvard psychologist B.F. Skinner teach pigeons to do complicated tasks, from tracking missile targets to recognizing individual human faces? How do pigeons find their way back home from hundreds of miles away? The New York Pigeon lovingly describes and illuminates the wonder of nature alive in our midst. With this book, the beautiful, savvy, graceful, kind pigeon will be invisible no more.
