Doug's Gym

Hardcover English 112 pages 24.5 × 30 cm 801 g

Description

Doug’s Gym captures the raw, unfiltered atmosphere of a neighborhood gym through intimate black-and-white photographs. Norm Diamond employs a documentary style that highlights the textures of aged equipment and the quiet intensity of daily workouts, creating a mood that is both nostalgic and contemplative.

The images focus on the physicality and dedication of the gym’s patrons, emphasizing muscle, sweat, and grit within a confined community space. The 112-page book, published by Kehrer Verlag in 2019, balances personal portraits with environmental details to provide a nuanced portrayal of working-class perseverance.
