Biographical note
Jean-Michel Berts has been a photographer since age sixteen. With his first Rolleiflex camera he became sensitive to the effects of light. Today Berts enjoys an international reputation and exhibits his work at galleries in Berlin, Paris, London, New York, and Tokyo. In addition to The Light of Paris, The Light of New York, The Light of Tokyo, The Light of Istanbul, and The Light of Venice for Assouline, Berts has also worked on advertising campaigns for luxury brands such as Cacharel, Dior, Jaquet Droz, and Lancome.
Moving, dreamlike excerpts from Nobel Prize-winning writer and humanitarian Elie Wiesel's acclaimed 1968 novel A Beggar in Jerusalem introduce this latest volume in Assouline's The Light of collection. Showcasing Jean-Michel Berts's textural black-and-white photographs taken on the cusp of daybreak, The Light of Jerusalem captures the poignancy and the poetry of this ancient crossroads. Modern Jerusalem is a multicultural metropolis, a complex layering of the historic and the timeless; this marvelous volume expresses the power and mystery of Jerusalem's monuments, gardens, and panoramas. Introduction excerpted from A Beggar in Jerusalem by Elie Wiesel.
