ROBERT HERMAN
Robert Herman has been a street photographer since his days as an NYU film student back in the late 70's. His love of light and color, and making images that find the transcendent in the seemingly mundane, continues with the release of his newest collection of photographs filmed throughout the globe, on his iPhone using the Hipstamatic app, THE PHONE BOOK. His photos of New York City shot between the years 1978-2005 on Kodachrome are featured in his first monograph: “THE NEW YORKERS.” His work is part of the permanent collections of the George Eastman House and the Telfair Museum in Savannah, GA. His photographs are also in many private collections including Westin and Marriott Hotels. In 2011, images from The New Yorkers were exhibited at the Istanbul Photography Museum. In 2013 his solo exhibit "A Waking Dream,” was presented at the Museum of Modern Art in Cartagena, Columbia. He has a BFA in Filmmaking from the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University and received his Masters in Digital Photography from the School of Visual Arts in NYC.
