Waterworks: The Hidden Water System of New York

Publication date: May 2025

Photobooks
Waterworks by Stanley Greenberg is a sweeping photographic portrait of New York City’s water system, featuring 362 black and white images made between 1992 and 2024.

Over three decades in the making, the book traces the often-invisible infrastructure that brings water into and out of the city: reservoirs, aqueducts, tunnels, gatehouses, pumping stations, water tanks, wastewater treatment plants, stormwater facilities, and maintenance covers. A fold-out map charts more than 400 locations from upstate to the outer boroughs, grounding the work in geography and scale.

The Enchanted Ones

Publication date: April 2025

Photobooks
The Enchanted Ones is a visual tale that drifts between reality and myth, inspired by the legends of the Brazilian Amazon. Shot entirely on 35mm black-and-white film, the book moves beyond documentary into the realm of the imaginary, capturing a world where the seen and unseen coexist.

At the heart of the book are the Encantados—shapeshifting beings said to inhabit the waters and forests. These mythical figures blur the boundary between human and spirit. Among them is the Boto, a freshwater dolphin that, according to legend, takes human form to lure people into the enchanted world beneath the river.

We Will Return To You

Publication date: March 2025

Photobooks
Photographer Hannah Altman’s new book considers how Jewish storytelling is translated and transformed through photographs by evoking the enigmatic, ritualistic, and multi-layered world of folklore. The 71 color photographs in the book, often portraits, are illuminated by Altman’s distinctive use of natural light.

Rooted in Jewish folklore, the photos in We Will Return To You reinterpret objects and traditions from Judaica, placing them in contemporary settings. Altman bridges the past and the present, creating a visual narrative that expands and carries forward cultural memory.
