About
Towards the end of the 1960s, one year after he first picked up a camera, Bruce took the subway train through Brooklyn to capture the sunbathers, the weekenders, the sideshow booths and the Cyclone rollercoaster of Coney Island. The world famous Brooklyn amusement park has been the subject of many photographers, but no one has ever managed to eke out its characters and eccentricities with such a brutal honesty.
