Dune Shacks of Provincetown

Dune Shacks of Provincetown is both a monograph of 90+ interpretive color photographs by Jane Paradise and a cultural history of the shacks as told by the people who stayed there. Text and image have equal weight but tell different aspects of the same story. These excerpts of conversation and insights from both historical and contemporary voices illuminate and reverberate with the photographs that explore exteriors and interiors of current shacks, as well as the breathtaking and isolated surrounding dune landscapes and ocean. Paradise created this work during artist residencies and visits in different shacks over more than a decade. She worked with Creative Director Joanne Dugan in developing and designing this book. The synergy between text and image creates a direct, palpable experience for the reader of what it feels like to actually be there, and offers a compelling first-person view of the unique, historic Provincetown shack culture.
