Encountered over his sixty years of work, in Montreal, New York, Paris, Barcelona and Venice, from sidewalks to library tables, George S. Zimbel's pictures speak to the evolution of everyday life over time, as well as the endangered practice of documentary photography.
"You can take a photo at 1/100th of a second, but it takes longer to read it. Then the fun begins. Reading a photograph is more like taking a trip. You see things that kindle all kinds of memories good and bad. Your life is the reference."
— George S. Zimbel
