Niagara — Alec Soth, 2021 (2nd printing)

A staged cathedral of longing and fallout. Made over two years on both sides of the Falls with an 8×10 camera, this work shifts the spectacle from water to wounded intimacy. Honeymoon suites, pawned wedding rings, motel beds and handwritten confessions construct a portrait of modern love at its most exposed. Interspersed letters—crushes, affairs, despair—puncture the romance. Published by MACK Books , the second printing sustains one of the sharpest meditations on American desire after Sleeping by the Mississippi .
