I recently received my copy of the above named zine by Brian Rose and must say it was $15 well spent. It documents the area of the Philly suburb made famous by one Mr. Rudolph Giuliani who staged a press conference there, (very) mistakenly believing the soil of the landscaping emporium to be the grounds of the hallmark hotel emporium. A self imposed irony truly beyond modern day parody.
The photographs consist of a series of urban color landscapes that (while not directly dealing with the outright clown show described) are in and of themselves both a visual delight and an insightful look into just one of the many nooks and crannies of modern day Americana. And it must be said, the quality of the reproductions contained within the two page spreads are nothing short of amazing! Mr. Rose, traditionally a large format practitioner, continues to impress with his handy dandy Leica Q whose first results he published In Time Of Plague.
