Austin Quintana is a photographer living in Brooklyn, making work in the American West.
We talk about his project Where the Valley Sings, photographic cliches, portraiture, approaching strangers, Alec Soth, Mark Steinmetz and Robert Adams as usual. We also spoke about the work he's doing for Ryan McGinley, the approach to living in NYC but making work on the other side of the country. Austin is an amazing photographer with a really bright career ahead of him. I love his work and I think people need to pay attention to what he's doing! Don't sleep.
