Mann rose to prominence with
Immediate Family, a collection of photographs of her children that
some saw as emotionally direct and others found disturbingly

內容簡介：
DESCRIPTION: Sally Mann remains among the most innovative,
talked-about, and daring artists working with a camera today. DEEP
SOUTH is a much anticipated collection of her exquisite, ethereal
landscape photographs, taken in the years since she rose to
international fame with her groundbreaking book Immediate Family.
The photographs in DEEP SOUTH, many produced with the
19th-century collodion process and a variety of toning techniques,
capture what Mann calls the "radical light of the American South."
Borrowing methods favored by early masters of landscape
photography, Mann bends classic craftsmanship to serve the
expressive needs of a heightened contemporary sensibility.
Serendipitous technical imperfections, such as light leaks or
scratches on negatives, echo the accidental, chaotic workings of
time. From ghostly images of historic battlefields to painterly
visions of Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, and her native
Virginia, Mann''s landscape photographs transport the viewer to
another time and place.
