William Christenberry's Black Belt

"Since the early 1960s, Christenberry has returned to the American South for his artistic inspiration, primarily centering on his early home in the Black Belt counties of Alabama. ... Christenberry's poetic elucidation of Southern vernacular landscape and architecture--using the media of photography, drawing, painting, collage, sculpture, and miniaturization--reveals the vital importance of geography and place, real and imaginary, as central to his life's work."--Jacket.
