Bruce Weber and David Bailey, two of the most respected photographers in the world, exhibited a unique collaboration that has captured the spirit and soul of Harlem, New York. The exhibition took place in the Nicholls & Clarke Building in Shoreditch and was open to the public between 13-21 September 2013. It featured a wide range of photos of Harlem and its residents, all captured on a Nokia Lumia 1020 smartphone and a Nokia Camera Grip. The pair visited the most iconic sites in Harlem to bring to life everyday street scenes in the famous New York community. These images will be featured in exhibitions scheduled to take place globally this year. It was the first time Mr Weber had used a digital camera of any sort for his work and the first time he had partnered on a project with long-time friend David Bailey.
