“I went to Provincetown originally to explore how the Cape’s light seemed to illuminate nature from within. What I discovered was the manner in which the light penetrated and exposed people’s mystery, revealing their true identities in such a way that everyone became beautiful.” —Joel Meyerowitz Throughout the late 1970s and early ’80s, Joel Meyerowitz spent his summers in the beach town of Provincetown, MA, roaming the seaside with an 8-by-10 camera, making exquisite, sharply observed portraits of denizens of the progressive community.
