Welcome to Preventi Shoes. We Are Global Nomads

Real street style

A mediados del siglo XX, fotógrafos como Walker Evans o Henri-Cartier Bresson apostaron por salir a la calle y retratar la realidad de las calles, por cruda que fuera. Evans viajó a la América rural para captar la esencia de las familias más pobres con un estilo que, sin dejar de ser elegante, era extremadamente crudo.

Hoy encontramos nuevos fotógrafos que hacen de la calle su estudio para contar al mundo lo que sucede en ella. La plataforma My Modern Met ha buscado a los mejores y nosotros seleccionamos estos cinco.
