Seller: Ergodebooks, Houston, TX, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Photography. "The Neugents "Close to Home" is a large-scale book of 66 black and white photographs of one North Carolina family. "I began photographing the Neugents in 1987. I had chosen them as subjects because of the uniqueness of their lifestyle. What I found fascinating about them was their stubborn commitment to the attitudes more reminiscent of tobacco farmers of the early part of the century. They were throwbacks who continued to struggle within a system that had been replaced by agribusiness and industrial development" ("Introduction"). "This book may be as close as you ever want to get to the old Neugent place, but Mamie and Lee and Frog and Coon and Turtle and Nubby will stay with you" (Jonathan Williams, "Afterword"). A tour de force that is an important social document and contemporary-art statement, as well as a moving respectful and decidedly unsetimental depiction of a vanishing way of rural American life" (Tom Patterson). David M. Spears photographs are represented in many permanent collections in U.S. museums. He was born and raised in Madison, North Carolina. He now lives outside Madison in a log home which he built with the help of friends and Lee Neugent, whose image appears throughout this collection of photographs. Seller Inventory # SONG0912330759
