70年代时，玛莎·库珀作为摄影师，在被其他人视为是象征着犯罪和贫穷的涂鸦作品里寻找玩味和创意。这些都被她记载在《地铁艺术》一书里。在涂鸦发展成为全球性文化运动的当今，人们分享艺术的途径也和过往的纪录方式大不相同，玛莎也开始寻找自己在这个新世界中的地位。该纪录片不仅带观众回顾了纽约涂鸦文化的发展史，也探讨了不同时代文化和科技的冲突与兼容。

Celebrated filmmaker and photographer Cheryl Dunn turns her lens on the pioneers and masters of New York street photography. Dunn profiles artists spanning six decades, including Bruce Davidson, Mary Ellen Mark, Jill Freedman, Jeff Mermelstein and Martha Cooper, revealing that these shooters are as colourful and unique as the subjects they’ve relentlessly documented. Everybody Street explores the passion that compelled Freedman to spend years riding in squad cars during the most violent years in the city; Bruce Gilden’s drive to thrust his camera in people’s faces to capture a moment; and Martha Cooper’s dedication to chasing graffiti on passing subway cars in the Bronx. The film is a definitive look at the iconic visionaries of this often imitated art form.
