Portfolio Reviews with Ebru Yıldız
Ebru Yildiz was born and raised in Turkey and moved to New York City in 1998. While pursuing her Master’s degree in Communications Design at Pratt Institute, her passion for music led her to seek it out everywhere – large clubs, small bars, back rooms, house parties, and the multitude of DIY venues in Brooklyn. She soon found herself documenting the thriving New York Music scene on an almost nightly basis. In 2017 Ebru was selected as one of Brooklyn Magazine’s “100 Top Brooklyn Influencers”. In 2016 she self-published her first photo book, “We’ve Come So Far – The Last Days of Death By Audio”, a documentation of the final days of the beloved DIY Brooklyn venue, released to positive reviews from The New Yorker, Slate, Pitchfork, and Fader, among many others. In 2015 Ebru received a Turkish Cultural Foundation grant which funded her work on an in-depth photo essay on the current landscape of Turkish music, which was published by Pitchfork and was subsequently selected as PDN’s Photo of The Day. Ebru was invited to show work in the Janette Beckman-curated exhibit “Down & Dirty” at Photoville 2015, along with acclaimed photographers Bob Gruen, Danny Clinch, and Mick Rock, among others. She was selected as one of “The 50 Greatest Music Photographers Right Now” by Complex Magazine in 2012. Her photographs appear regularly in print and online publications including Pitchfork, NPR, The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Q Magazine, Spin, NME, New York Magazine, Brooklyn Magazine, Interview Magazine, FADER, and Huffington Post, along with Impose Magazine and Brooklyn Vegan, publications that have their finger on the pulse of the NYC DIY scene. Ebru currently lives and works in Brooklyn.
