About
"Bull City Summer was a multimedia project to document the lives found within the ballpark that sits at the intersection of Blackwell Street and Jackie Robinson Drive in Durham, North Carolina in 2013. Among the photographers are local shooters Leah Sobsey, Frank Hunter, Alex Harris, Elizabeth Matheson and Ivan Weiss. Several photographers were also brought in from out of town: Hank Will Thomas, Hiroshi Watanabe, and Alec Soth, and Kate Joyce, one of Stephenson's former colleagues at CDS, is spending the season in Durham, away from her Chicago base. After the season, the raw material from Bull City Summer will find new life in a book to be published by Daylight, a Hillsborough-based art publisher. "Having been involved in the photo-publishing world for 10 years now," Daylight co-founder Michael Itkoff writes in an email, "we are interested in ways to diversify our approach to art books. We are also baseball fans." Daylight was involved with Sam Stephenson and NCMA in commissioning photographers, and the collaboration with NCMA reached fruition this February as the museum exhibits prints from the season at DBAP." A fine art photography book to be published by Daylight Books. For more info on Bull City Summer, please visit http://bullcitysummer.org/ |
