Summary:
In his breathtakingly beautiful Neutral Ground: New Orleans: 1990-2005, William Greiner presents a pre-Katrina New Orleans in the classic styles of William Eggleston and Birney Imes. Printed in Italy, under the direction of the artist, the pages explode with color: a father floating in a gelatinous, cerulean pool; an abandoned armchair framed by arsenic green walls; Titian red tiles atop the old New Orleans Athletic Club; and a riot of pastel decor inside a Chinese restaurant. Each of the eighty-six photographs reflect a lifetime of making art and documenting place and, taken together, comprise a passionate tribute to Greiner's lost home.
