Looks at the idea of community in America today, focusing on everything from the proverbial white picket fence and main street to images that play with and subvert traditional notions of home town, community and the "American dream". Photographs and essays are included.
This book looks at the idea of community in America today, focusing on everything from the proverbial white picket fence and main street to images that play with and subvert traditional notions of home town, community and the "American dream". It journeys through the various regions comprising America in the 1990s - through cities and suburbia, trailer parks, porches and stoops, malls, shopping centres, housing projects and condos, ethnic pockets and rapidly decreasing farmland, and looks at how Americans define their sense of home and community as a social and physical environment, as well as something less tangible, more experimental, such as a protest march or a marathon. Contributions from Richard Ford, Gary Indiana, Michelle Wallace and Marianne Wiggins as well as photographs from David Byrne, Jack Carnell, Sandy Skoglund and David Lee are included.
