Trolley announces their new publication with Anna Fox and Karen Knorr U.S. Route 1 (After Berenice Abbott). Prior to this there will be an exhibition of the work at Rencontres d’Arles with a special signing at the Librairie du Palais.
In 1954, photographer Berenice Abbott journeyed along the length of U.S. Route 1. From Florida motels to Maine potato farmers, Abbott memorialised communities up and down the East Coast. During this trip, she shot more than two hundred and fifty 8×10-inch photographs, and around one thousand smaller images using her Rolleiflex camera, representing her largest portfolio of photographs devoted to a single subject. In 2014 after the publication of David Campany’s book, The Open Road: Photography & the American Road Trip, Anna Fox and Karen Knorr decided that they would make a collaborative road trip together based on Berenice Abbott’s Route One.
The book is available for SIGNED PRE-ORDER at the special price of £40 until July 24th when it will be launched at The Photographers’ Gallery, London.
