Some of his work has just been published in an ambitious book out of New York by Mossless Magazine titled “The United States: 2003-2013.” It’s an anthology of documentary work made in the last decade by over 100 established and emerging photographers (including Youngsuk Suh of UC Davis). Some of his prints were recently exhibited in NYC for the book’s release.

Broadway Augmented is a temporary and virtual public art project on Broadway in Sacramento, California. Eleven artists from around the country have designed public artworks for sites on Broadway that can only be viewed in real time on an Apple or Android phone or other smart device.
Two exhibitions have been produced, in conjunction with Broadway Augmented. One at the Robert T. Matsui Gallery in Sacramento City Hall and the other at the Sacramento Republic FC Offices. The Events and Exhibitions page for more information.
