Summary note
For four decades Mike Smith has photographed people living in the Southern Appalachian region, their lifestyles, and their land. Warn-ing Shots is a collection of recent photographs from that region edited during the 2016 pres-idential election cycle. The selection is a re-sponse to Donald Trump?s campaign rhetoric and subsequent leadership. The works con-tend with sexism, homophobia, racism, misog-yny, violence against women, gun violence, ignorance, intolerance, and hate. Mike Smith (b.1951) taught photography at East Tennessee State University from 1981 to 2017. His work is in the collections of the MoMA, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, SFMOMA, MOCA, and other major museums. He is a Guggenheim Fellow and a United States Artist Fellow.
