In 1978, Sternfeld left New York and headed out into the American landscape. At the time he thought he would follow the seasons for a year, but his journey lasted six years. Capturing two 8 x 10 negatives a day, Sternfeld story-boarded at night in his Volkswagen camper.\u003cbr\u003eThis new edition of \u003ci\u003eAmerican Prospects\u003c\/i\u003e is larger than all past editions, designed to make small details in the frame more legible. The pandemic years gave Sternfeld a chance to revisit all the negatives in his studio; this edition contains some of these as yet unpublished discoveries. \"Little did I know that many of the aspects of the so-called Reagan Revolution, the union busting, the erosion of the quality of life of the middle class and the even less privileged, a turning to the right altogether, would continue unbroken to the present,\" says Sternfeld. \"This edition may reflect this understanding.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoel Sternfeld\u003c\/b\u003e was born in New York City in 1944. He has received numerous awards including two Guggenheim Fellowships, a Prix de Rome and the Citibank Photography Award.
