Seeing Joel's photographs is more or less like experiencing a soft and tender shock, sometimes also described as pleasure. Born in New York, he's known for being one of the first photographers in using exclusively colour film and facing the black & white paradigma of those times. Through many years he has captured human nature in its best moments, within good or evil, and he still does, as he was the only one allowed to take pictures on ground zero immediately after the 9/11 WTC attack.
By the way, in our selection of pictures we've included a B&W one, as he also took great pictures in negative monochrome before facing a more colourful world.
