50 years after Robert Franks seminal book The Americans was released, Zoe Strausss own America breaks new ground. The Philadelphia native who has brought us searing images of that citys marginalized people and places on the fringe of society, has taken her no holds barred, up close and personal style of photography on the road across the underbelly of America. At times witty, touching, poetic, and downright shocking, Zoe Strausss photographs of the beauty and struggle of everyday life resonate as a social document of our time, and as sheer and powerful art. In this election year, Zoe Strausss images underscore an America that more often than not, goes unseen.
