Lee Friedlander: America by Car 15

“Friedlander’s road pictures, taken over the past decade, are about three things central to his life: the American people, the landscape, and photography. He uses his rental car as a deceptively simple framing device, borrowing the built-in borders of its rear-view and side-view mirrors, windshield, and side windows. The result is a collection of brilliant observations about American people and places, their idiosyncrasies, eccentricities, and obsessions, and his love of all.” Elisabeth Biondi, 2010
