The New American Village

Catalog Number: 
Book, Thrall, Bob
Date: 
1999

Abstract: 
"In The New American Village, Thrall captures four components of the new edge city - corporate, commercial, domestic, and environmental - in a way that no previous photographer has achieved... Documenting these new American places, he draws attention to the choices being made when they are built and some unexpected transformations... Always thoughtful, often striking or strangely beautiful, Thrall's remarkable images capture vast suburban world where, in ever increasing numbers, Americans are choosing to spend their lives."
