An American Family

Argus Fotokunst in Berlin presents David Hornback’s long-term study of his family in 1970s America. The show is scheduled to continue until January 30, 2021.

David Hornback (b. 1962) was still a teenager when he discovered his passion for photography. In the years from 1977 to 1980, he created a long-term study of family life in Wichita, Kansas – capturing intimate, black and white photographs of his relatives and friends. The Argus Fotokunst Gallery in Berlin currently presents excerpts from the resulting series, titled ‘Where the Hell is Wichita’.

Born in Los Angeles and raised in Kansas, David Hornback spent 33 years as an editorial staff member at various publications in Jackson (Mississippi), West Palm Beach (Florida), Providence (Rhode Island), and San José (California). He has also worked as a freelance photographer in Berlin, Seville, Istanbul and Tucson, among others. David Hornback currently lives and works in Bilbao, Spain.
