Detroit Photography: Book of Love
Posted by ni.c - 02/08/09 at 11:58 am
Mitch Cope plant ein Foto-Buch über Detroit mit 6 weiteren Fotografen, einige sehr interessante Fotos kann man schon auf mitchcope.com ansehen.

Detroit is one of the most visually interesting cities in the world however it is also one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented cities. This group of photographs illustrates what contemporary Detroit artists have been doing in regards to developing an understanding and appreciation for this complex and diverse city from street portraits of the “survivors” to the landscapes of wild new growth to the industrial leftovers.
These seven artists have been working in the city as explorers, adventurers and pioneers for years to capture the city as it changes, evolves, devolves and transforms into something unbelievable, profound and heartbreaking. In the end they hope as a group to show Detroit as it is, not what it should be or what it was, but how it is. This in itself a provocative gesture as there are not many who feel content with the Detroit of today.
The photographs here are made within the last 5 years, all within the City of Detroit.
They are: Corine Smith, Mitch Cope, Clinton Snider, Mark Alor Powell, Antonio Gomez, Ingo Vetter, Scott Hocking
