TIM DAVIS, JACK HITT - My life in politics

Title: My life in politics
Description: Aperture, 2006. Pp: 111. This first in-depth publication of photographer Tim Daviss work dissects the disenchantment and dissociation that have come to dominate American civil life. It is Daviss treatise on the state of contemporary politics, politics as an aestheticized banality abstracted from real issues of power. He finds freedom of expression exhibited at its most casual and cursory, with political, commercial and populist signage jostling for space and attention in the social landscape: His documentation of that landscape, as Peter Eeley of Frieze magazine interprets it, asks, "What if campaign signs, badges, bumper stickers and flags arent simply the ephemera of Americans political lives, but their substance as well?"~My Life in Politics represents photographic seeing at its finest and most subtle. Davis continues Stephen Shores colorist tradition, meshing the careful management of a quotidian palette with an incisive eye for those points at which light bends and refracts, becoming something other than mere illumination.
