"Los Angeles is so massive, confusing, beautiful, harsh and strange that it almost defies you to make work about it,” says the photographer Gregory Halpern. “It is an impossible project in a way.” In his intriguingly titled new book, ZZYZX – named after a village on the edge of the Mojave desert in Saint Bernardino County – Halpern has created a California of the mind, a place both real and metaphorical, familiar yet alien. The photographs hold all kinds of resonances from the dark, surreal films of David Lynch to the anxious urban neighbourhoods evoked in the early essays of Joan Didion." Sean O'Hagen (The Guardian). Photobook of the Year Award Winner 2016 by Paris Photo and Aperture Foundation. Item #17505
