Alec Soth


From your colleague, Kathleen Steiger:

I came across this Youtube video (actually from 4 years ago) with photos and an interview with a Minnesota Artist – Alec Soth…we have some of his works at Mia.
He uses a large format Camera and the images he captures are great.  The first video (from SFMoma) speaks of the commission he had to photograph Silicon Valley and “the cloud”.  
The second video (MN Original) gives a good deal of background on how and why he does what he does:
One of his pieces is on view at Mia in G373.  It is one from his Sleeping by the Mississippi series. Here is a link to his website:
