New work, new location, some revivals

Thanks to a grant from Kunststiftung NRW I am engaging on another journey to the US. I just spent a week in New Orleans, revisited some of the places I photographed two and a half years ago, and witnessed history in the making (more in following posts).

Today I travelled to rural Alabama, namely Greensboro, to explore the terrain where 81 years ago Walker Evans and James Agee did their research on three tenant families that eventually became the photography and literary classic of Let Us Now Praise Famous Men.

As usual, I will try to keep you posted on my whereabouts. However, this time I will write in English that my international friends will also be able to follow. Stay tuned...
