Jamel Shabazz now showing at dirty pilot

JAMEL-SHABAZZ

We just got the heads up that Dirty Pilot is now showing Jamel Shabazz.

“Jamel Shabazz has been documenting the ‘Urban Life’ for over 30 years. Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY he picked up his first camera at the age of 15 and proceeded to record the world around him. Jamel has drawn inspiration from the great James Van Der Zee, Gordon Parks, Robert Capa, Chester Higgins and Eli Reed.”

Check it out and pick up a print if you can.
