Two Home Homes

Two Home Homes' is part of the 'Homes for America' project — a series of photographic images that depict the typology of North American suburban homes, primarily built after the Second World War. In this work, Dan Graham compiled the houses in terms of their possible variations of style, colour and form. He thereby drew a critical parallel between sociology, architecture, mass production, and the serial quality of minimalist aesthetics. The images of 'Homes for America' were subsequently developed in a photo essay published in 'Arts Magazine', exploring alternative ways of presenting works away from artistic institutions and simultaneously reproduced on a large scale and made available to a wide audience.
