SUMMARY:Interabang Books Presents Leonard Volk
DESCRIPTION:everyday is a book of photographs and essays by Leonard Volk\,
  FAIA emeritus\, a retired architect. The book contains selected photograp
 hs and essays from more than 60 years of personal photography. \n " This s
 eries focuses on the familiar and the small\, things usually screened from
  our attention. When we notice the small\, we sometimes find qualities and
  intensities harder to find in broader views of the world. Such discoverie
 s make us aware that the world around us contains wonders and epiphanies.
  We find complexity\, mystery\, drama\, poetry\, humor\, and beauty. Effec
 ts are often multiplied by analogy\, metaphor\, and our emotional response
 s.  Although the small and familiar have long been recognized as worthy su
 bjects by photographers\, I believe they are surprisingly neglected. For m
 e\, uniqueness fairly jumps from tiny objects and bits of landscapes. I fe
 el inspired to hunt the significant ordinary.” - Leonard Volk. \n A quote
  from Volk’s preface: “I offer this collection of photographs with respect
  and encouragement to each person beginning to find his or her way in phot
 ography\, and to each casual photographer who records family events\, pets
 \, and trips”. \n“Stretch yourself. Reach for satisfactions in photography
  only you can recognize.  I challenge you to find subject matter you care
  about strongly\, that no one else would know to photograph\, that no one
  else would photograph your way”. \n “Art\, like flying\, is freedom.” \n
  “I believe we are all artists if we allow ourselves that freedom.”   \n “
 The images are more than visual\; they are loaded with content\, stories\,
  and evoke emotions rarely projected. This is much more than a collection
  of excellent photographs: in a quiet way\, it tells the story of everyday
  with high drama.”   HAL BOX\, FAIA\, former dean of the School of Archite
 cture\, University of Texas at Austin   \n“His imagery is magically – as w
 ell as vibrantly\, lyrically\, evocatively and\, yes\, obsessively – poeti
 c. Architecture may have been the subject by which Volk chose to define a
  significant portion of his ‘professional’ career\, but his concerns remai
 n truly modern and touch upon all things from history\, symbology\, philos
 ophy\, music and\, thank goodness\, art itself. He speaks and photographs
  in the voice of all these humane and ‘caring’ concerns and\, as such\, ha
 s found the poetry of life and light itself.” ROY FLUKINGER\, Senior Curat
 or of Photography\, Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center\, University o
 f Texas at Austin \n For media inquiries\, please contact alison@volkpr.co
