David Ricci

Ricci’s newest collection, Hunter-Gatherer, is a collection of photographs taken throughout the United States at flea markets, antique malls, pawn shops and other sites where memorabilia and collectibles have been gathered together by dealers. Their customers hunt for pieces that have some utilitarian value or personal meaning for them, hoping for a rare find. In these milieus Ricci too hunts and gathers – searching for and capturing images that emerge from this nostalgic, often kitschy, slice of the American cultural landscape.

Ricci’s previous work is now memorialized in his new book, EDGE. EDGE is one of those rare books that come along that will actually change the way you see the world. For more than 30 years David has captured the everyday world with a curiosity that is driven by finding those places, views and situations that bring the edge of chaos into alignment with the edge of aesthetic brilliance and transcendent beauty.

David lives and works in the Berkshires.
