Mark Steinmetz – Off Interstate 40, Knoxville 1993
Mark Steinmetz lives and works in Athens, Georgia. His work transcends the traditional boundaries of documentary, street, and fine art photography. Photographing almost exclusively in black and white, Steinmetz explores the fragile and sublime visual tapestry of everyday life, where the mundane and banal become elevated to the exquisite through the lens of his camera. Mark Steinmetz: South will include photographic selections from three of his books published by Nazraeli Press – South East, South Central and Greater Atlanta, along with a compilation of new and unseen work.
The artist will be present for the exhibition opening on January 17th (from 6 to 8pm) and will lead a gallery talk on Sunday, January 18th at 1pm.
Admission for each event is $10/ free for Ogden members.
