"Summer After" is a collection of works by American photographer Lucas Foglia (1983-). Known as a contemporary photographer who explores environmental issues, communities, and the relationship between humans and nature from a long-term perspective, Foglia has built an international reputation through documentary works based on meticulous research. This book is a collection of his early works, taken during the first summer after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, when he moved to New York at the age of 19, and was published approximately 20 years later. At the time, reconstruction work was still ongoing at the World Trade Center site, but Foglia turned his camera not to the events themselves, but to the people living in the aftermath. Walking from Manhattan through the five boroughs, he photographed people he encountered on the street, capturing their portraits that reflect the quiet breath of a city trying to regain its normalcy while still grappling with the memory of loss. The careful gaze that examines the relationship between humans and places, which is also evident in his later masterpieces, is already clearly present in these early works, making this a valuable book for understanding the origins of the young Foglia. Furthermore, it is highly regarded as a work that embodies Stanley/Barker's publishing philosophy of re-editing and publishing previously unpublished works from a contemporary perspective.
