    About the Book

    Edit

    Blueburg is a typology of small towns scattered around Lee county. In order to compare, Bluberg has become a fictional town located somewhere in our imaginations. Camp Hill, Tuskegee, and Waverly were all photographed as a part of the small-town typography. In those series of photos, you can see the similarities between the old patina of metal, buildings overtaken by nature, paint chipped off the sides of buildings, and weathered wood. However, unlike the photographs in Typologies: Nine Contemporary Photographers by Marc Freidus, these photographs introduce a modern style. This book defines typologies as “a collection of members of a common type or class” (10) and describes the style of typologies as monotonous and redundant. These photographs were usually taken at neutral angles and could be described as scientific and orderly. Blueburg shows that making comparisons does not have to be done in a scientific and monotonous way and can make the individual images interesting to the viewer while also showing similarities and a comparison. It also shows that displaying similarities do not have to be carbon copies of each other. Similarities can happen in subtle ways that the viewer can deduce. Similarities do not have to be force-fed to the viewer. The natural world is also rarely monotonous and orderly, so doing the opposite of that roots the images in real life. Blueburg also compares in showing a smaller town with a larger population, Auburn. The photos in Auburn were taken at night to show the glow of the nightlife and the pristine, industrial upkeep of the town. Even though Auburn’s population is larger, Bluberg seems to be full of life in its own beautiful and natural way.
