A photographer-turned-gallerist offers up a treasure trove of artworks in Tennessee
With its rich musical history and civil rights legacy, Memphis has a unique cultural identity within the US. Its intrinsic character is especially meaningful for photographer-turned-gallerist Matt Ducklo, who returned to his hometown in 2009 after a decade in New York. Since then, he has been steadily evolving Tops Gallery, which he opened in the basement of a historic building in 2012. Tops is now a thriving space, dedicated to showing work by artists with ties to Memphis and the surrounding southern region.
