Mark Steinmetz’s "Past K-Ville" continues the poetic journey that began in "15 Miles to K-Ville". This new collection of photographs dates from the mid-1990s and was made on road trips throughout the American South: Memphis, Atlanta, New Orleans, Chattanooga, and Athens, Georgia. Spray-painted rumours of romance punctuate a world comprised largely of teenagers and young couples. The work was made while Steinmetz received support from a Guggenheim Fellowship.
"I love the South for its warmth and chaos. The vegetation down here grows rampant; the light is softened by humid air. The people are for the most part friendly and they are comfortable in their bodies. They tend to be more open to being photographed by a stranger. The unexpected happens here a lot." - Mark Steinmetz
A brand new, most handsome example of the 2018 first edition limited to one thousand copies additionally SIGNED "Mark Steinmetz" on the title page.
