[Text at Schaden.com:] Die Entdeckung 2001 lautet Huger Foote. Der Mann aus Memphis mit dem witzigen Namen ist der rechtmäßige Nachfolger von William Eggleston. Seine sublimen Pigment-Transfers sind eine Offenbarung in Sachen Farbe, Plagiat allerdings ausgeschlossen. Der Altmeister bemerkte treffend im Vorwort: "All of his pictures are new... What a nice dream.
From the publisher: "The work in Roaming appears arrestingly different than that in Todd Hido's previous two monographs. It is as if, having spent so many nights outside the eerie, brightly lit suburban tract homes featured in House Hunting and Outskirts, he has suddenly put his foot on the gas pedal and driven into the next day. But these landscapes continue Hido's mastery in portraying the most mundane scenes with a menacing air of expectancy. These unpeopled pictures, often taken through a car windshield, are so effective in creating tension they might almost have been staged. But in fact they are taken "as seen"; the telegraph poles, the straggling tree, the road leading nowhere are all exactly as encountered by Hido as he drove through Eastern Washington State, the California Central Valley, Indiana, South Louisiana and beyond."
