Backyard Oasis: The Swimming Pool in Southern California Photography

Link: Feature Shoot

Backyard Oasis: The Swimming Pool in Southern California Photography celebrates the nexus of these two phenomena in a one-of-a-kind collection that features more than two hundred works by more than forty postwar artists and photographers. Thematically grouped into topics ranging from the rise of celebrity culture, suburbia and dystopia, avant-garde architectural landscape design, and the cult of the body, these images offer a rich study of the cultural connotations of the swimming pool.
