From 1906 to 1934, Eugene de Salignac shot over twenty thousand 8-by-10-inch glass-plate negatives of New York City. As sole photographer at the Department of Bridges/ Plant & Structures during that period of dizzying growth, he documented the creation of the city`s modern infrastructure bridges, major municipal buildings, roads, & subways. For years, these remarkably lyrical photographs have been used in books & films, but never credited to de Salignac. ” New York Rises” is the first monograph to present them as an aesthetically coherent oeuvre by a photographer with a unique vision. As meticulous in his record keeping as he was creative in his photography, de Salignac left five handwritten logs that identify each negative by place & exact date. This information is complemented throughout the book by narrative captions expanding on themes such as accidents, bridges, workers, & the Depression. Michael Lorenzini has unearthed primary sources to reconstruct de Salignac`s biography. Kevin Moore explores his work in the context of other photographers of the period, including Eugene Atget & Berenice Abbott. ...
