    Big ten co-eds, preppy girls, and the lost cheerleaders

    Rare Books

    "Using a methodology that both parallels and gently ridicules the concept of stock photo agencies, New Catalogue (artists Luke Batten and Jonathan Sadler) has created a series of original editions that tap into popular culture while expanding on traditional photographic genres. This book, their first, examines elements of American iconography that are at once hilarious and vaguely unsettling: 'Big Ten Co-Eds with Ski Masks, ' 'Preppy Girls with BB Guns, ' and 'The Lost Cheerleaders'-- each of which hints at a subconscious desire for danger in a sterile suburban setting. With a degree of ambiguity, this work allows the images to be molded, contextualized, and ascribed narratives in hundreds of ways to suit the end-user or client (if one is to maintain the corporate analogy) who could be a journalist, advertiser or contemporary art collector"--Publisher's description.
