Tonight, April 7th at 7pm is a lecture by Mark Steinetz at the Timken Lecture Hall, California College of the Arts (1111 Eighth St. San Francisco, CA 94107). Highly regarded for his black-and-white portraits, Mark Steinmetz is renowned for producing powerful pictures that capture the strong sense of displacement and isolation felt by many young Americans. His celebrated series of books Greater Atlanta, South East, and South Central – published between 2007 and 2009 – is a lyrical and evocative look at American culture and notions of progress. Steinmetz followed up on this classic trilogy with Summertime in 2011. Later this spring, Nazraeli Press will release Paris in my time, work culled from several extended trips that the artist made to Paris over a twenty-five year period.
