| Özet: | The author knows that class, defined as both economic ranking and cultural polish, are not mutually exclusive categories, a theory beautifully defended in this book. Here we find an elegant exploration of two distinctly different cultures: the upper crust of New York City society and the down-home folk of Martins Creek, Pennsylvania. Straddling these worlds, he photographed society black tie events, capturing dioramas of stale emptiness lurking in the sensuous decadence, switching gears with raucous, emotionally dramatic photographs of his farm neighbors, the Sabatine family.--From dustjacket. |
