Brand Leica Store SF BooksWe are thrilled to announce the publication of Chicago by Mark Steinmetz. This extraordinary group of photographs, made between 1988 and 1991, provides a compelling portrait both of the city itself and of the time in which they were made.
Steinmetz’s relationship with Chicago is an important and evolving aspect of his artistic journey. While he is primarily associated with the South, Chicago has long been a city that has inspired his creative exploration. Chicago’s distinct neighborhoods, architecture, and energy offered Steinmetz a rich source of material, allowing him to capture the city’s quiet moments and intimate portraits of its residents. Chicago showcases a unique perspective of the city and and is an important chapter in Steinmetz’s ongoing dialogue with the broader American landscape.
Born in 1961, Mark Steinmetz lives in Athens, Georgia. He is a Guggenheim Fellow, with work in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
Chicago opens with an essay by Peter Galassi, Chief Curator of Photography at the MoMA, New York, from 1991 to 2011. Beautifully printed in duotone on a special matte art paper, and bound with a two-tone brown linen over boards, this first printing is limited to 1,500 copies.
