Jeff Brouws

Jeff Brouw's body of work forms a meditation on the changing American landscape. His views of America transition chronologically from quirky and nostalgic typologies (freshly painted houses, road-side '40's and '50's signage) to images with the ability to induce a more critical view on contemporary iconography (strip malls, fast food). His most recent work, The Discarded Landscape, contains lots of nice post-industrial scenery.
