America's Idea of a Good Time   by Kate Schermerhorn
A rollercoaster ride of the absurd combining the photographs of Kate Schermerhorn and the writing of Simon Winchester in a compelling and hilarious exploration of America's endless search for fun. We see people bungee jump, pretend to bungee jump, play bingo, bowl, hit golf balls through clown heads and stack Oreo Cookies. This is a quirky affectionate take on Americans at play.
Kate Schermerhorn brings genuine life to the show. In her small black-and-white prints nothing seems wasted, and nothing's excessive
The New Yorker
Lightheartedness, irony and affection
