Jordano, Dave : Articles of Faith: African-American Community Churches in Chicago

from $60.00

2009 / First Edition

Publisher: Center For American Places

In this era of suburban mega-churches and televised Sunday morning services, it is easy to forget that many Americans worship in small, community churches whose sanctuaries are often repurposed commercial spaces. In Articles of Faith, photographer Dave Jordano documents the at once humble and dynamic storefront churches of Chicago’s African American neighborhoods. These churches, which dot the south and west sides of the city, are truly community churches—individualized and idiosyncratic, they cater to the specific needs and wants of their members.

Condition: 2 signed. All are like new and in excellent condition.
