Messengers Style

Messengers Style

Editorial Reviews Book Description Messengers: fast, furious, athletic, stylish. Whether carving through city traffic at breakneck speed or pausing on the sidewalk, today's bike messengers are the absolute in urban style. Because of messengers' impact on society on many levels like open attitudes, trend-setting, music and sports, this book is a real statement on the driving engine of a high energy city. They are the true symbols of the active metropolis, and an important link to the business community. Here, for the first time, they are taken off the street and into the studio. Contemporary photographer Philippe Bialobos has taken a series of rhythmic, colorful portraits which perfectly frame the messengers' off-beat appearances and transfixing physical presence, while at the same time capturing the varied personalities that lie hidden beneath the layers of hats, shades and city smoke. The images are accompanied by various poems written by messengers from across the country.
