About the Item

Garden of Eden on Eldridge Street, 1986 From a 35mm negative, scanned in 2020 Archival Pigment Print available in this size of 16" x 20" in an Edition of 12 with 3 Artist Proofs Print size 16" x 20" Image size 12" x 18" In 1984, Tria Giovan moved to a tenement building on Clinton Street on New York City’s Lower East Side. She wandered the streets photographing as if in a foreign land. 'Loisaida'— as some knew it—was as gritty, authentic, and humble as it was exotic, vibrant, and colourful. The melding cultures and humanity she encountered inspired these photographs. Giovan left the neighbourhood and the work behind in 1990 without ever editing or producing the majority of the photographs. The negatives languished until the pandemic. Now, the work has now been collated in a new publication from Damiani Books. 'Tria Giovan: Loisaida, New York Street Work 1984–1990' is a time capsule; a cultural and historical record of a 1980s Lower East Side that fostered robust communities of diverse populations, including the many immigrants who took pride in making Loisaida their home, and contributes to an historical visual legacy of the ever-evolving, always evocative Lower East Side.
