Sérgio Poroger | COLD HOT
Poroger traveled over 3000 kilometers through the states of Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas, journeying along the legendary Blues Highway, Route 61, passing through landscapes that alternated between humble countryside lined with farmlands and opulent cities crowned with skyscrapers, but all with a common theme: the ever-present musicality. Few regions of the country offer such musical diversity, from old, sacred blues to country, branching through classic jazz and 50’s rock and roll.
Based on this, Brazilian photographer and journalist Sérgio Poroger put together a collection of photographs now available in his book, Cold Hot, sponsored by the Lafayette Convention and Visitor Center and other supporters. The book tells the story of the region, and the 66 images give visual understanding.
Sérgio will discuss his work and explain the trip he took to gather images and ideas for this work of art.
On Saturday, March 4, 2017 at 4PM, Sérgio Poroger will appear at A Cappella Books to discuss his work and explain the trip he took to gather images and ideas for this work of art..
