Bruce Gilden – Photography

Bruce Gilden (1946) is a New York based street photographer best known for his extreme spontaneous portraiture. Crooked faces, bad skin, bad teeth, scars and dirt all are all represented right up front in Mr Gilden’s amazing photography. His first major project was of people at Coney Island, (seen in a couple of theses shots). He has photographed people on the streets of New York, Japanese Yakuza, mobsters, homeless people, prostitutes, and members of bike gangs.
