© Harvey Wang, 1980, Cleveland Place, New York City
Mr. Wang remembers stumbling upon the near-deserted block and asking the boy whose car it was. “My mother’s,” he said, and continued banging away.
That old New York is the one Mr. Wang holds most dear, but the idea  of change that gives his photographs their energy and poignancy is one  that he still sees today.
“It exists constantly in New York,” he said. “You could continue to  document the evolution of New York. This is just one moment.”
The exhibition “Out Harvey Wang’s Window” opens Wednesday night at the Lower East Side Tenement Museum, the inaugural show in the museum’s new gallery space on Orchard Street.

Q: What strikes you as especially interesting about the origins of the movement?
Mattathias Schwartz:  This whole “ego-less” thing is very interesting to me — I tried to focus on it as much as I could in the story. The  OWS movement has a real taboo on individuals accumulating power or   authority over others. This isn’t unprecedented — some of it is   reminiscent of Ella Baker and SNCC and lots of other historical   precursors — but to me it was very interesting. You  would think that *someone* would want to step out in front of this  and  claim to be in charge of it, but that’s not happened as of yet.
- This week in the magazine, Mattathias Schwartz writes about the origins and future of Occupy Wall Street. On Tuesday, Schwartz answered readers’ questions in a live chat. Click through to read a transcript of the discussion: http://nyr.kr/rUP28I
