Offering a visual critique of the American myth of upward mobility, a noted photographer offers a series of images focusing on our car-centered, paved-over society, with evocative studies of the devastated inner cities and the edges of suburbia where sprawl is encroaching upon nature.

Da: World of Books (was SecondSale), Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Hardback. Condizione: Good. Like many who grew up during the spread of sprawl--with its predictable landscape of housing developments, shopping malls, interstate highways, and big-box construction--acclaimed photographer Jeff Brouws is drawn to places that still embody the vernacular past as well as to those that starkly portray the soulless, franchised American landscape. What began as cultural geography of Main Streets became a visual critique of the myth of upward mobility that created this car-centered, paved-over universe. Some images look outward to the edges of suburbia where sprawl is encroaching upon nature. Others turn inward, documenting the devastated inner cities. All the stunning color photographs reflect the complex beauty and desolation of visual life in our time. Codice articolo 00103856511
