40 years ago, 3 photographers, informed and inspired by the great documentarians of the 20thCentury, photographed for 3 years in all of Kentucky’s 120 counties. They were Ted Wathen, Bill Burke, and Bob Hower. From thousands of negatives, a core group of over 100 images were deemed significant and exhibited nationally. Now, 40 years later, they are setting out to do it again. We’ll discuss the original work and some of the issues we face in the new project. Is it relevant? Do we still have what it takes? New methodologies, and new technology.
