- More about Somebodies: The Real New Orleans
A singular, unique and original exploration of one of America's greatest and most beloved and visited cities.
This incredible photographic survey punctuated by intimate and lively texts, created by a highly regarded photographer who has a unique eye even when exploring the ';normal' is expected to enchant anyone who encounters it. Its subjects run the gamut from music, to historic locations, to important residents, to food, to architecture.
But the book is not just a photographic survey: Thom Gilbert makes contact with the luminaries in the environment and interviews them in their unique environments. The greatness of this book hangs on the ';somebodies' who have made the town the world-class environment that it is today. Just some of the ';names' here interviewed and photographed include James Carville, Emeril, Jon Batiste, John Berendtinternational luminaries who have made the ethos of New Orleans boundless on a national level. New Orleans is known for it's round-the-clock nightlife, vibrant live-music scene and spicy, singular cuisine reflecting its history as a melting pot of French, African and American cultures. This book embodies all of these and its festive spirit that begins with Mardi Gras and ends with a great meal, documented in a singular way by a world class portraitist of cultures writ large.
Like every book and photographic work created by Thom Gilbert, this is a first book of its kind: a fine art documentary that offers rare, all-access insight into a uniquely American culture on the rise. Ideal for local residents of New Orleans, visitors and armchair tourists, and collectors of unique fine art photography, Somebodies is a visually stunning and essential addition to any bookshelf.
