"With just a handheld 35 mm camera and natural lighing, photographer Robert Bergman explores his subjects with an evident determination to record a connection, even at the expense of surroundings, which Bergman tends to carefully forfeit as a compositional element. The series documented in this catalogue, produced for Bergman's exhibition at P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center, charts the evolving character of Americans at the turn of the millennium. Toni Morrison has written of Bergman's work. One by one, each photograph unveils us, asserting a beauty, a kind of rapture, a template of singularity."
