商品簡介
Oskar Schmidt (b. 1977; lives and works in Berlin and Leipzig) analyzes, dissects, and restages certain aspects of photo history in his The American Series. It begins with the photographs by Walker Evans that were created for the U.S. Farm Security Administration (FSA) in the 1930s, during the Great Depression in the South of the USA. In his The American Series, Schmidt takes on these icons of classic photojournalism of the past decades, re-creates the scenery of Evan's photographs in his studio, and photographs them anew with a large format camera.
