Ce que j’aime dans cette photo, c’est que personne ne regarde la parade. Ce sont des gens qui font une parade. Tout le monde participe, ils marchent dans la rue et reviennent et en dix minutes c’est fini. [Bill Owens]
Bill Owens may be America’s best-known photographer of suburban life. In his seminal 1972 book Suburbia, he documented the places where America lives, celebrating the ‘burbs and their residents with a patriotic delight … while maintaining an ironic distance that keeps his work relevant today.
“What I like about this is there’s nobody watching the parade. It’s just the people having a parade. Everybody participates so they just walked down the street and walk back, and in ten minutes it’s over.”
