(America at the Turn of the Century)
Photographs by Leo Fitzpatrick

May 30 through July 4, 2009

Photographing the deterioration of America at the turn of the century, Leo Fitzpatrick says “fuck you to digital nightlife photography.” In reaction to the accessibility and degradation of photography, he seeks out complex yet simple images of landscapes, street corners and aging architecture. His observations come from having traveled cross-country by train and car eight times.

Leo Fitzpatrick’s artwork has been exhibited worldwide. His photographs have been featured in several publications including Journal, Joulouse and Mass Appeal.
