The Mississippi Delta evokes mystery, beauty, and hardship in equal measures. Its haunted fields, turbulent history, and resilient people have fueled countless songs, tales, and literary works, and its presence resonates strongly in the construction of the American South.In Delta Deep Down, photographer Jane Rule Burdine captures the region with clarity and warmth. Since the early 1970s, Burdine has used the Delta as her muse, traversing and documenting the everchanging landscape in color photographs. These powerful images reflect how the Delta and its citizens have responded to each other, and how each has in turn been changed. Weatherbeaten shacks, cotton and soybean fields, industrial equipment, people at work and play, and clouddraped, endless horizons are all seen through Burdine's lens. The Delta's past and present mingle in every photograph of the inhabitantsblack and white, young and old, rich and poorin moments of contemplation, hard work, and joyous revelry.Novelist and Indianola native Steve Yarbrough offers a touching, personal introduction that explores how Burdine's photographs reveal the place he once called home, and how, through her photographs, the hold this fertile ground claims on his heart is reinforced. Delta Deep Downoffers an unforgettable portrait of a quintessential Mississippi place and the people who abide in it.Wendy McDaris provides historical context and locates Burdine's work among current trends in fine art photography.
