<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>At times witty, touching, poetic, and downright shocking, Strauss's "America" shines a light on the often unseen people and places in the United States today. In highly formal compositions, she uses photography to create epic narratives that pursue a hopeful quality in adverse conditions and how people manage to live their lives.AMMO Books LLC<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Poised to be the most important photography book of the year, Zoe Strauss's America shines a light on the often unseen people and places in the United States today.<p> Once in a great while, a photographer and their photographs break new ground and people sit right up and take notice. Zoe Strauss is such a photographer. The Philadelphia native who has brought us searing images of that city's marginalized people and places on the fringe of society, has taken her no holds barred, up close and personal style of photography to the roads less traveled across America. At times witty, touching, poetic, and downright shocking, Zoe Strauss's photographs capture the beauty and struggle of everyday life and resonate as a social document of our time, and as sheer and powerful art.<p> Zoe Strauss picked up a camera on her 30th birthday, but in only eight years, has generated a huge body of work that has been exhibited in the Whitney Biennial, and has garnered her a United States Artists grant.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"There are photographic projects where it becomes evident that the photographer is just a visitor, dropping in to take a photo-op, collect some photo-trophies and then rushes back home for the evening to spend time with their spouse and kids. With Zoe Strauss's recent project, 'America, ' published by AMMO Books, I quickly understand that these rough and tumble neighborhoods of South Philly are where she lives. She is not a stranger, but a local, calling this area home." --Photo-Eye Magazine</p><br>
