Description

?咬一口代表城市魅力的大蘋果,邊走邊讀紛雜多元跨種族的文化風景。

在街頭探索,在地鐵解讀藝術,觀察這城空間,於日光悠悠,長夜漫漫。

美國著名的評論家E.B. White在《這就是紐約》(Here is New York)一書中寫過:「大體說來,有三個紐約。一個屬於土生土長的男男女女,他們眼中,紐約從來如此,它的規模,它的喧囂都是天生的,避也避不開。一個屬於通勤者,他們像成群湧入的蝗蟲,白天吞噬它,晚上又吐出來。一個屬於生在他鄉,到此來尋求甚麼的人。在這三個動蕩的城市中,最偉大者是最後一個──紐約成為終極的目的地,成為一個目標。正是這第三個城市,造就了紐約的敏感,它的詩意,它對藝術的執著,連同它無可比擬的種種輝煌。」

第三個紐約──一個屬於生在他鄉的人,到此來尋求甚麼的紐約。

由華爾街、格林威治村同志區,闖到東村波希米亞區、Nolita與Soho;轉入Chelsea畫廊區、時代廣場、林肯中心、到達上城的西裔及黑人哈林區。潘國靈以「屬於第三個紐約的紐約客」身分走進這個代表城市魅力的大蘋果,思考都會生活,探索城市空間,再讀路上經典,串起香港紐約的文化雙城故事。
