Photographer of the Month


this month's photographer is Chien-Chi Chang. he is a korean photographer who is known for his documentation of the life of illegal immigrants in the section of new york known as chinatown. his work deals with alienation and connection. you can read his bio at magnum photo's web site.
his work was shown at the columbus museum of art last year from the book "the chain". the book deals with mentally ill patients (one who is stable, and the other is unstable) who are chained together as a form of therapy.
