Published by Éditions Textuel, this book presents a collection of images capturing the vibrant streets of New York, taken between the 1950s and the early 2000s. His impressionistic approach to color and his fragmented compositions, often created through reflections and bold framing, give his photographs a unique and poetic atmosphere. After Saul Leiter’s death in 2013, the Saul Leiter Foundation undertook research and conservation work, revealing over 80,000 previously unpublished works. Forever Saul Leiter contains a precious selection of these shots never published before, offering an intimate and unprecedented look into the photographer’s universe.
