Boston-based photography Henry Horenstein has spent the last three decades making an indelible mark on the photographic world. His subjects range from the country music industry of the 1970's and '80's to the animal kingdom to the thrill of the Saratoga horse races.

Show is a return to Horenstein's roots as a documentary photography. With a mixture of shooting love performances and in-studio work, Show captures the heat, humor, history and sensuality of an art form that is oft forgotten yet still thriving.
