Journeys occupy a central role in the history of American thought, and travel photography has been a vital genre since the 1840s. The appeal of the foreign and exotic is just as strong to contemporary photographers as it was to their nineteenth-century counterparts. Our voracious appetite for images of the unfamiliar remains undiminished. This catalog includes the work of eight contemporary photographers--Linda Connor, Ed Grazda, Richard Pare, Stuart Klipper, Mitch Epstein, Rosalind Solomon, Lois Conner, and Lee Friedlander--all of whom derive inspiration from their travels to far-flung reaches of the world. Their work represents a variety of aesthetic and technical approaches, but they all share an acute and non-idealized awareness of balance, belonging, and place that transcends the habits of daily environment. As one photographer stated, Journeys are our gyres. In elemental ways we are always traveling in circles. We have to go away to come back home.
