A couple of years ago we looked at some of Richard Sandler's photographs of New York City taken in the 1970s and 80s, and now he's back showing off more of his collection at an exhibit opening later this month. "The Former New York" will focus on the 1980s and highlight many of his subway snapshots; it opens at Millennium Film Workshop (66 East 4th Street) on April 30th, and runs through June 19th. more ›

Richard Sandler, a New York documentarian, has sent along some photographs from his decade-spanning collection. Sandler will also be screening two of his documentaries about the city later this month. The first, Brave New York (watch online), "is a free form documentary that loosely chronicles the last 12 years of intense change in the East Village.
