July 30 to Nov 27 2016 - The exhibition of photographs, drawn from the Museum’s collection, examine Hall’s use of Kentucky as both subject and subtext. He made Tobacco Harvest in 1973, the year he returned to Lexington after living away for many years. It is a prescient look at a vanishing way of life. He examined painful family histories in the series Orphan in the Attic, and his enduring love of the land is evident in many images made on his farm in Sadieville.
