Ethan James Greens first monograph, Young New York, presents a captivating selection of striking portraits that capture the essence of New York's vibrant millennial scene. This diverse and captivating cast includes models, artists, nightlife icons, queer youth, and gender binary-defying muses who have made their mark in the fashion world and beyond. Under the guidance of the late David Armstrong, Green honed his sensitive and confident style, forming an intense connection with his subjects. His luminous black-and-white portraits, many taken in the picturesque Corlears Hook Park on the Lower East Side, evoke the iconic mid-century studies of gender nonconformists by Diane Arbuss. While Green is known for his work on commission for fashion brands and magazines, Young New York showcases a more personal and humanistic approach. Over three years, Green photographed his close friends and community, capturing their unique stories and perspectives. His artistic vision transcends the fleeting trends of the moment, offering a profound exploration of beauty and identity for a new generation. Hari Nef, one of Greens frequent subjects and a model and actress, aptly describes him as an artist among so-called image makers. Young New York promises to introduce a bright young talent who is redefining the standards of beauty and identity, making a lasting impact on the art world.
