Over the last few years, Michael has been back and forth to Atlanta documenting the hip-hop scene for his latest book “Atlanta,” published by Chronicle Books.  The official book site is up- check it out!

Also wanted to share a very nice mention on the T Magazine Blog by Leanne Shapton:

I got a peek at an early draft of Michael Schmelling’s latest book, “Atlanta,” due out Nov. 1, from Chronicle Books. Over the last three years, Schmelling has photographed the city’s ever-shifting hip-hop landscape. His pictures of Atlanta artists, their fans and various up-and-comers reminded me of Altman’s “Nashville”: full of intense beauty, grubby corners and players playing. Schmelling explains: “Music in Atlanta filters up through the strip clubs, local radio and roving parties. It’s a self-sufficient, regional scene that drives a huge part of American popular music and culture.” Kelefa Sanneh of The New Yorker and Will Welch of GQ contribute essays and interviews, and an accompanying mixtape download of unreleased tracks by some of Schmelling’s subjects is available from the website.

MICHAEL SCHMELLING went to Austria with the New York City Players as cinematographer for a production of “Ads.”  He also shot a series of features for WIRED in Canada, DETAILS in Las Vegas and TIME MAGAZINE in New York.  His book, THE PLAN, was featured in Cabinet Magazine and THE WEEK OF NO COMPUTER in European Photography.  Check out his updated blog!

Hope you can make it!

MICHAEL SCHMELLING’s Converse basketball ads (Anomaly) have hit the streets!  Michael shot stills & video for a big WIRED feature on “Process,” shot The Dream for the cover of THE FADER, and documented the Lower East Side gallery scene for W MAGAZINE.  Michael also tried his hand at theater lighting design with the production company Every House Has A Door, for a production at the Museum Of Contemporary Art in Chicago. The play, “Let Us Think of These Things Always, Let Us Speak of Them Never,” will be shown in NYC and Chicago in 2011.

With The Lucie Foundation!  At Space1520!  Next Thursday (sorry, no fun link)!

Michael Schmelling recently shot several Converse basketball ads, a few favorites below!
