California Songbook
California Songbook is a road trip through the western United States, packed with visual impressions and the songs on the car radio.
45 photographs look at Californian life. Patriotism, US flag and religious cults, sports and body cults, the contrast between rich and poor, participation and exclusion... presented in simple everyday American situations. The Californian sun and the beauty of the landscape act like a cushioning carpet.
