Description: William Christenberry is an internationally recognized interpreter of the American South. Through drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, and installation, Christenberry reveals a stirring vision of the heritage that obsesses his art. His original imagery and objects form a distinguished voice in American contemporary art. Addressing the experience of migration and the toll of regionalism on personal identity, he specifically describes and considers the social and material culture of the deep South.

This volume presents the first comprehensive survey of the artist's expression ever published.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 193-204).
Published in conjunction with the traveling exhibition "Reconstruction: William Christenberry's art," first held at the Center for Creative Photography, the University of Arizona, and the University of Arizona Museum of Art, Apr. 21-June 30, 1996.
