“The American dream just keeps getting more expensive.”
Over the past 25 years Lauren Greenfield's documentary photography and film projects have explored youth culture gender body image and affluence. In this fascinating meld of career retrospective and film essay Greenfield offers a meditation on her extensive body of work structuring it through the lens of materialism and its increasing sway on culture and society in America and throughout the world. Underscoring the ever-increasing gap between the haves and the have-nots her portraits reveal a focus on cultivating image over substance where subjects unable to attain actual wealth instead settle for its trappings no matter their ability to pay for it.
