Veteran photographer Richard Sandler spent 1992 to 1998 documenting the manic street preachers and streetwalkers of Times Square, during a grittier time when the “Crossroads of the World” was slowly transformed from a free-speech common ground into a corporate theme park. In this MiniDV street epic, Sandler’s alternately bombastic and humbling oddball subjects inquire about the nature of God, argue, pray, or otherwise give him a piece of their mind. The Gods of Times Square is gonzo filmmaking at its finest, delivering the unbridled id of Giuliani’s New York.
“Once upon a time, town squares were comment sections, where people brave enough to shout their opinions did it face to face. There is no stronger belief than one’s faith, and what used to be Times Square was a town square on steroids. As the 20th century came to an end, we entered the corporatized Y2K age. Spirituality seemed an essential grounding force, something to unify us. But whose God is supreme? What is God? What is God’s place in the digital age? When Disney invaded Times Square it went up against the smut. It was a magnet for all things good and bad. It was hell with attractions. I still secretly wished to be yelled at whenever I enter Times Square…” – Josh Safdie
“In its foreground a study of urban theology as it examines the relationship of man and God in Midtown Manhattan…a good-humored, tolerant celebration of New York City’s diversity and eccentricity and of its incubation of sidewalk philosophers. But soon the construction cranes loom against the sky, and the family that owned the little hot dog stand nestled among the old movie theaters west of Seventh Avenue on the north side of 42nd Street gathers for a tearful farewell to the old Times Square. Enter Mickey Mouse. Enter Dopey.” – Lawrence Van Gelder, The New York Times

'THE EYES OF THE CITY': RICHARD SANDLER
Exhibition EXTENDED to Sunday, March 26, 2023
Saturday, March 25, 6PM—Screening + Q&A: 'The Gods of Times Square
RSVP for the Opening Reception
The Eyes of the City, the first major retrospective of legendary New York street photographer Richard Sandler, will be on display at the Bronx Documentary Center. The opening reception will take place on Saturday, February 11th. The exhibition will feature work from his monograph, The Eyes of the City, along with never-before-seen prints from his extensive archive.
With an incisive eye and peerless craft, Sandler prowled the streets of New York from the late 1970s until September 11, 2001, capturing a changing city, with its dramatic juxtapositions of class and race laid bare in his frame. Sandler is among the all-time greats of street photography; his work has been praised as “at once political, aesthetic, and emotionally stirring,” by LensCulture, with photographs that take viewers on “a wild and wandering journey,” according to The Washington Post.
In addition to Sandler’s prints, a trilogy of his first-person documentary films will be shown at the exhibition: The Gods of Times Square, Sway, and Brave New York. Sandler’s films capture the essence of Times Square and the East Village in the 90s as these quintessential parts of New York City faced gentrification and real estate speculation, forcing many New Yorkers from the neighborhoods they once inhabited.
Gallery Hours: Thur-Fri 3-7PM & Sat-Sun 1-5PM
BDC Annex, 364 E. 151st St, Bronx, NY 10455

Art & Technique in the Practice of a Street Photography - A Workshop with Richard Sandler
Saturday, February 11 & Sunday, February 12, 10AM-5PM
Please note interested applicants must first submit work for review PRIOR to enrolling in the workshop. Please send a link to your online portfolio or samples of your work (10 to 20 photos, jpegs or PDF's) to Richard, at ohstop@bway.net and young@bronxdoc.org for review before enrolling.
This advanced-level workshop is designed for photographers who seek to learn how to perfect their street photography skills and instincts in this hands-on course. The most effective street photographers are poets, taking the pulse of their time. They wander the city streets in all seasons and in all weather, looking for luminous moments–the extraordinary within the ordinary.
This course will bring you closer to that ideal–while you learn how to see like a camera sees, through practicing camera operation techniques like zone focusing, wide angle lenses, and over- and underexposure. We’ll focus on manual settings so you can master both the technical and the artistic side of street photography. You’ll learn to frame your pictures precisely, looking through the viewfinder so that the edges of your pictures sing, and are as important as the center of the frame.
Every street photographer is unique–what do you see that nobody else sees? Do you want to move like a dancer in and out of the flow of the street or, like Garry Winogrand, do you stay in one place, and let the world come to you? The great Helen Levitt used a right angle finder to be invisible and non-confrontational. There are many approaches and we will explore them together.
My intention for this class is to carefully look at your work, critique it honestly, listen to your questions, show you examples of my work and that of others, and help you express the essence of your vision.
