| Summary: | Hometown' collects a series of suburban landscape photographs taken on Long Island between 1973-1980 by Joseph Szabo. Sharing the same DNA as his 'Teenage' and 'Almost Grown' series, Szabo's 'Hometown' images conjure up an instant nostalgia, recalling fond memories of Szabo's childhood and adolescence in suburbia. Szabo explains, "The 'Hometown' scenes reminded me of places I knew from my youth, places that I saw on my way to school, church, or the museum. They struck an emotional chord in me, one that is hard to put into words but that revealed their connection to my own past. In that sense, 'Hometown' is autobiographical." Building on his past work, 'Hometown' gives context to the suburban lives that Szabo has documented so effectively for almost forty years. |
