Rebecca Norris Webb - My Dakota
In 2005, Rebecca Norris Webb began photographing her home state of South Dakota, a place of complexity that she describes as having “more buffalo, pronghorn, coyotes, mule deer, and prairie dogs than people.” A year into the project, her brother died unexpectedly of heart failure. At this point, Webb found herself continuing to photograph while driving on the prairie roads as a way of processing her grief. The resulting exhibition, My Dakota, takes viewers on this elegiac journey, combining luminous color prints of the South Dakota landscape with the artist’s poetry penciled onto the gallery walls.
My Dakota will continue in exhibition form from Blue Sky to The Cleveland Museum of Art this summer.... - Exposition
Violet Isle - Alex Webb and Rebecca Norris Webb
"Violet Isle" is the little-known name for Cuba inspired by the rich color of the soil there. A unique and enigmatic double portrait by photographers Alex Webb and Rebecca Norris Webb; Violet Isle, combines two separate photographic visions: Alex Webb's dramatic and graphic exploration of street life in Cuba; and Rebecca Norris Webb's fascination with the unique, quixotic collections of animals she discovered there in tiny zoos, pigeon societies, hand-painted natural history displays and quirky personal menageries. As Florida’s nearest international neighbor, and as an area of long-standing museum interest and focus, Violet Isle offers the next intriguing chapter in the Southeast Museum of Photography’s sustained exhibition record of Cuba.
