The second issue of Latitude 47 features seven individuals represented through five portfolios.
As was true with the inaugural issue, PCNW did not set out with a theme in mind, and yet from the disparate practices and visual explorations of the artists selected, a shared concern with identities—of person and of place—emerged.
This year’s issue features work by Rodrigo Valenzuela, Tod Gangler, Jenny Riffle, Molly Landreth, Garth Amundson & Pierre Gour, and Chris Letcher.
The breadth and complexity of the work presented in our second volume of Latitude 47 is itself indicative of the Pacific Northwest’s multi-faceted identity as a region.
The diversity of conceptual and creative approach by these artists, reflects our mission as a publication and as an institution engaged with the photographic medium.
