Atlanta-based photographer Jerry Siegel has famously captured images of his native Selma throughout his career, and his ongoing series of portraits of Southern artists has likewise earned him great acclaim. But an exhibition opening this Friday at Spalding Nix Fine Art marks a new direction for the artist: stark, striking portraits of Atlanta drag queens, in and out of drag, as well as sequential shots of various states in between. ArtsATL sat down with Siegel in his midtown studio to discuss the new work.
