We met up with Bruce Gilden in the streets of Manhattan to look at a day in his life and offer some insight into the work he created in New York in the 1980s. Gilden grew up in Brooklyn, making him no stranger to the city’s multi-faceted nature. And, his frank and evocative style of street photography plays homage to Robert Frank's quote, 'If it's not good enough, you're not close enough'.

His photographs are of the "street poet" variety with his images laid out in a stream-of-consciousness-type manner. Though the sequencing follows no particular, identifiable rhythm, they reflect the meandering eye of their maker.
