Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - When American Readers at Home was published in early 2018, it was met with widespread praise. The German weekly Die Zeit called it 'a fascinating contemporary document of contradictions.' The manager of a major London art bookshop tweeted on April 10, 2018 that he had 'checked ALL the books… at London Book Fair today to find the best one and this is it: American Readers at Home [.] It's incredible!' The book soon sold out, no least because it won gold in the 2019 German Design Award and was also among the winners of the 2018 Swiss and German national book design competitions. Swiss graphic designer and photographer Ludovic Balland has now put together a new selection of the compelling material amassed on his road trip across the United States during the 2016 presidential campaign. American Readers at Home-New Cut brings together color photographs of cityscapes and black-and-white portraits of American citizens with interviews about their use of news media, alongside facsimiles of newspapers and collages with statements about the current state of the country. Four years have passed, yet none of these stories have lost their power or urgency!; «Ein faszinierendes Zeitdokument der Widersprüchlichkeiten», schrieb Die Zeit, als American Readers at Home 2018 erschien. Der Schweizer Publizist Daniel Binswanger nannte es «die Psychoanalyse der amerikanischen Mediennutzung». Bald schon war das Buch vergriffen, was wohl auch an den vielen Auszeichnungen lag, die es erhielt: German Design Award 2019 in Gold, Schönste Deutsche Bücher, Schönste Schweizer Bücher. Nun legt der Gestalter und Fotograf Ludovic Balland eine neue Zusammenstellung seines vielbeachteten Materials vor: American Readers at Home - New Cut. Auf 276 Seiten verbinden sich Fotografien von Stadtlandschaften, Interviews mit amerikanischen Zeitungslesern über ihre Mediengewohnheiten, Fotoporträts derselben Menschen sowie Faksimiles von Zeitungsseiten und zu Collagen zusammengefügte Statements über den Zustand der USA im 21. Jahrhundert. Aufgenommen hat Ludovic Balland die Interviews und die Fotografien im Präsidentschaftswahlkampf 2016. Aber nichts davon hat an Aussagekraft oder Dringlichkeit verloren - im Gegenteil.
