Author: Hilger, StephenThis leporello publication presents Brooklyn-based photographer Stephen Hilger’s colour photographs of service alleys and the backside of houses separating the public from the private in Beverly Hills, California – a more anomalous view of the place by depicting the physical and symbolic spaces behind the homes of the area’s wealthy residents. An essay by novelist Matthew Specktor maps out the significance of Hilger’s alley views in the context of personal histories and Hollywood stories.Hilger photographed their graffiti, security signage, crammed garbage cans, car parks and overgrown vegetation; the maintenance staff working nearby; and the alleys’ narrow, high walls that conjure a claustrophobic refusal of inspection.In the Alley features 22 panoramic photographs in a leporello-folded format so the reader can leaf through the photographs or expand the book-object for display. In a conversation, Hilger and photographer James Welling discuss their respective practices.ISBN 9780979776854. Purple Martin Press. hb. 66 pages. 22 colour ills. 17.8 x 25.4 cm.available
