The players
Rare Books
"This long-awaited publication presents 73 of Steinmetz's photographs of adolescent and teenage baseball players, on the field and in the dugout, focused on the game and lost in their own worlds.

South Central
Rare Books
"Renowned for his modest yet powerful photographs that capture the sense of displacement and isolation felt by many young Americans, Mark Steinmetz photographed in and around Knoxville, Tennessee to create the work that makes up South Central. The title of the book is derived from the South Central Bell telephone company that serves Knoxville, and their public pay phones are a recurring theme in this work; an iconic reminder of the area's socio-economic condition. The artist possesses an uncanny ability to pull folly, aggression and tenderness through his lens simultaneously, and delivers with this book a powerful and touching visual novel of the human condition"--Publisher's description.
