Robert Adams by Evan

My photographer of choice has to be Robert Adams, he documents banal scenes in America. These works encompass different genres of American topography, he documents grey areas of rural america and suburban america, such as a suburban community within an arid desert environment, as well he documents water bodies as they approach the dryland, and just crest movements. Robert Adams has been quoted to say his work is not conceptual but rather empirical, that is he tends to know what he shoots when he present with in area. I feel this is something i can connect with and explore, Houston contains banal industrial/folklorico suburban topology that are neglected in photography; what is typically shot are rustic scenes in america such as aged farm typologies and mom and pop buildings, i feel that an approach to Robert Adams in Houston may enlighten certain anomolies that are taken for granted such as the hybrid in between areas that happened accidently rather then planned, which seems to connect well with Adams mentality torwards photography, and how Houston originated.
