Hardhitta Gallery is pleased to present Poet of Radical Photography, a solo show by German photographer Miron Zownir. Famous for his images taken in Western metropoles such as Berlin, London, and New York, and in post Communist Eastern Europe, Zownir is regarded as one of the most radical contemporary photographers of the last 40 years.

Zownir’s photographs often depict social outcasts: drug addicts, the homeless, and prostitutes. It is said that Zownir continues where Weegee and Diane Arbus left off. His powerful black & white images draw attention to those who are often overlooked, shunned, or forgotten.
