A contemporary American photographer, Merry Alpern is famous for her controversial oeuvre and utilization of surveillance photography. The artist rose to prominence with her acclaimed series Dirty Windows from 1995, comprised of voyeuristic black and white images secretly taken through the bathroom window of a low-rent sex club near Wall Street. Using a telephoto lens, she captured men and women engaging in sex, doing drugs, and dressing or undressing and a host of other activities. Although the series sparked many controversies and made the public uneasy, it catapulted the photographer's career.

Hardcover with illustrated dust jacket, 23,7 × 29,5 cm, b&w photographs. English edition. In very good condition other than a few marks on the dust jacket.
