Bethany Eden Jacobson moved across the street from the Green-Wood Cemetery over a decade ago
and has been photographing it ever since. Green-Wood, founded in 1838, was a leader in the
Rural Cemetery movement in America. Its 478 acres encompass magnificent grounds,
grand architecture, and world-class statuary.
"Ode To A Cemetery" was published in November, 2024 by Hirmer Verlag with text by poet Cole Swensen.
Available at select bookstores including Rizzoli and the Museum of Modern Art.
You can order signed copies by emailing me.
Untapped New York hosted a talk about the book on Thursday, March 27 at 7pm
