Mitch Epstein: American Power

I think this is one of the most relevant works in contemporary photography on par with Taryn Simon's "An American Index ofthe Hidden and Unfamiliar".Although the photos have a very personal style, it's a very objective project that doesn't have to rely on pretentious and opaque concepts to justify it's meaning. This project don't have the sense of repetition that many others have, every image is very different from the others but all of them relate to the main theme in a different way.May be the best photo-book I've bougth this year.

Wonderful book. Great photographs.
