"Brooklyn: The City Within" is a collection of works by American photographers Alex Webb (1952-) and Rebecca Norris Webb. Known for his vibrant colors and complex compositions as a member of Magnum Photos, Alex has captured human activity and urban landscapes in Latin America and the Caribbean. Meanwhile, Rebecca has garnered attention for her work, fusing photography with poetry, capturing inner spaces and tranquil landscapes with a poetic eye. Published by Aperture in 2019, this book showcases the cityscapes the couple photographed over the course of seven years in Brooklyn. Combining vibrant and tranquil scenes—streets filled with immigrants, historic cemeteries, and lush parks—from their own perspectives, the book vividly depicts the diversity and memories inherent in the city. Alex's colorful and dramatic street scenes and Rebecca's tranquil and introspective images resonate with each other, creating a book that brings to light the inner story of the city of Brooklyn in multiple layers.
