Alabama photographer Jerry Siegel has made it his mission to capture Southern painters, potters, photographers, sculptors, and mixed-media visionaries on film.

The result is Facing South: Portraits of Southern Artists (University of Alabama Press), a new book that celebrates 100 people whose work has come to define the genre of Southern art in all its variety.
