Times Square : Celebrating the New Millennium

Photographer Cosimo Scianna set out to chronicle the recent resurrection of Times Square armed with his camera, artist¿s eye, & intense sense memories of what the infamous patch of concrete & asphalt has meant to him -- & the rest of the world -- over the years. Though I¿ve traveled around the world, I always miss New York,¿ he says. ¿And Times Square is the epitome of what people think of as New York.¿ While exploring Times Square¿s alternately glorious & notorious past & current world-class glam status, Cosimo discovered that the area has undergone a ¿renaissance of electrifying proportions.¿ Working out of his Greenwich Village studio, Cosimo enjoys a dual career as a still photographer & commercial film maker.
