Israel, 2003 black and white photograph, 11 x 14" Hunter Barnes Outside of Life 31Grand is proud to present "Outside of Life", Hunter Barnes' new series of photographs. Spending time and developing relationships with his subjects has enabled Hunter to take truly compassionate and honest pictures of this country's hidden cultures. Hunter's last series documented the rural people of the Wallowa Valley in northeast Oregon. For his current project he broadened his scope and traveled the country making classic black and white portraits of Americans living outside of the mainstream: Maximum security prisoners at Corcoran State Prison in California; the low riders of Espanola, New Mexico; a biker club from upstate New York; and the Bloods from Saint Louis. Available at the exhibition is his second book also entitled, "Outside of Life". Exhibition: May 29 - June 27, 2004 Gallery hours: Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon 1 - 7 pm or by appointment 31Grand 31 Grand St. (Williamsburg) USA-Brooklyn, NY 11211 Telephone 00718 388 2858 Email gallery31grand@earthlink.net www.31grand.com |
