Urban Spree Books publishes the ultimate photobook about Berlin. « Miron Zownir BERLIN 1977 - 2025 », features a carefully curated selection of his Berlin photographic works, spanning nearly five decades of an intense visual journey, from the divided city to the reunified metropolis.

Miron Zownir blends into the city like no other photographers, explores and exhausts its confines, merges with the fringes and the freaks. His acute documentation of the West- Berlin of the late 1970s to the global city of 2025, all in black-and-white, is a unique testimony of a bygone era and a deep foray into the underground.

« Dead roads covered in smoke and dark snow; underaged hustlers shooting high balls in public toilets; women peering through windows at unaffordable goods; Turkish kids playing ball in backyards no German child would enter. Roaming the darkest corners, my view of Berlin was entirely subjective. Focusing on the so- called bright side never occured to me, because I lived on the other one - and it didn’t attract me. Looking at my photos from the 1970s and 1980s, I still feel a chill I cannot put into words, as if something has crawled back into my life that never truly disappeared. » Miron Zownir.
