Featuring portfolios by: Sara Gomez, Tom Rankin, Alec Soth, Jen Szymaszek THIS EDITION IS SOLD OUT!! Alec Soth's photographic narrative follows his journey along the Mississippi river; each image offering insight into the timeless traditions and ever-changing cultural and physical landscapes of the Mississippi. Soth is currently displaying this work in the Biennial exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Jen Szymaszek brings us the faces and words of surviving family members of forgotten World Trade Center employees. Szymaszek's photographs communicate the universality of human love and loss while simultaneously illuminating the tragedy of 'undocumented' W.T.C. workers and their remaining families. The individuals missing from each of these family portraits represent a much larger population of migrants lost in the disaster of September 11, 2001. Unlike the families of lost U.S. citizen W.T.C workers, none of the here-represented families have received financial support from the United States government. Szymaszek has recently formed a non-profit organization that seeks to uncover this tragedy and bring support to all of the families of "Los Olvidados". Tom Rankin is Director of the Center for Documentary Studies in Durham, North Carolina. His photographs herein, explore the relationship of man and wilderness as represented through the lives and surroundings of several individuals living in the Mississippi Delta. While much of Rankin's work depicts the communities of this region, his photographs in this issue are yet unpublished. Sara Gomez is a young artist living and working in central North Carolina. She recently returned to the United States from an extended stay in Northern India. There, Gomez lived and worked as a resident of Ahmedabad. Her photographs and words from this experience bring us breathtakingly delicate imagery of the children with whom she worked. Gomez is currently working on her book of these photographs which is expected to be printed within the next year.
