This monograph surveys William Christenberry’s lifelong engagement with Alabama’s Black Belt, where he explored Southern vernacular landscapes and architecture through photography, drawing, painting, collage, sculpture, and miniatures. Centered on his 2005 residency at Auburn University Montgomery, it includes photographs of buildings documented over decades, Brownie and large-format photographs, Ku Klux Klan-related K-houses, dream buildings, pen-and-ink drawings, and studies for wall sculptures. The work addresses place, history, family, culture, nature, spirituality, memory, and aging.
