Michael Carlebach's photography exhibition, "American Studies," is exhibiting at the Love House and Hutchins Forum through August 26th.  Please join us at our offices, 410 East Franklin Street, Chapel Hill, on June 29th at 5 pm to celebrate both the opening of the exhibition and the publication of Southern Cultures Photography Issue, which features full-color photographs by William Eggleston, William Christenberry,
 and much more. 

 

So often we see photographs of a humorless South, but Michael Carlebach's photography reminds us to smile at ourselves. 

 

"Many years ago I concluded that for me truth and beauty, and perhaps wit and wisdom as well, are more likely to reside in what is ordinary and seemingly insignificant. This is, perhaps, a sideways look at America and American culture, but it is one that can produce moments that describe us all, but without makeup and bereft of a spokesperson."

 

-- Michael Carlebach, from his introduction to "American Studies."
