We believe the best way to understand a region is to look at it from multiple angles. In this curated three-volume collection, we explore the complex physical and cultural landscape of the American South.

What’s Included in the Collection:

• Red Clay: A tactile exploration of the South's physical foundation. This book grounds the collection in the literal landscape, exploring how the earth itself shapes the narrative of the region. Featuring work by Nydia Blas, Tim Davis, Maury Gortemiller, Laura Noel, and Anderson Scott with accompanying poetry by Pulitzer Prize winning poet Forrest Gander.

• 13th Spring by Aaron Hardin: A rhythmic look at the passage of time. Memory, renewal, and the cyclical nature of the Southern environment. A lyrical document about the fragile miracle of life.

  The 13th Spring was made between 2014-2016 after Hardin discovered that his wife was unexpectedly pregnant for the first time. The birth was a medical miracle with their daughter’s new life being both a joy and a tragedy. While she is his greatest love, he mourns the pain his daughter will inevitably face in this world.

• White South by Doy Gorton with Jane Adams: A rigorous visual examination of cultural landscape and identity. Doy Gorton’s White South was photographed in 1969-1970 at a time of great cultural upheaval. Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy had been assassinated, the culture wars raged, racial segregation was outlawed, and the post-war generation stood bitterly divided. Gorton’s photographs offer a study of Southern whites in the final days of legal White Supremacy on the cusp of a new era. This title asks questions about history, perception, and place.

Whether you missed these titles during their initial launches or are looking to expand your regional photography archive, this collection offers a comprehensive look at the Southern vernacular.
