Patty Lemke

Patty Lemke - from Baraboo and Beyond
BEYOND BARABOO

ARTIST BOOK WITH PHOTOGRAPHS

Patty Lemke’s work, Baraboo and Beyond, was borne out of a 2009 road trip the artist made across the American Midwest with time spent in Baraboo, Wisconsin. Ms. Lemke states, “Baraboo is my emblem for the quiet beauty of lonely farmlands, allocentric characters  and quirky roadside attractions that find me whenever I travel inland, far from the left and right coasts of the U.S.” The artist choose the accordion book format as the first public presentation of this work in keeping with the road trip’s sense of the unexpected around the next bend.
