PICTURING ROCHESTER

Jim Goldberg

Continuing its Postcards from America series (previous coverage here), Magnum has sent ten photographers to Rochester, New York, to create an visual archive of an American city. Rochester, former home of Kodak and in economic decline, seemed the ideal choice. Since each of the participating photographers possesses a very specific photographic style, House of Pictures (as they are calling this portrait) promises to be an expansive, and definitive, visual document of place in the midst of profound transformation. See the New Yorker’s interview with Alec Soth, here. Below, a selection of recent work.
