Julie Blackmon

Today the Print Sales Gallery of The Photographers' Gallery in London opened Julie Blackmon: Homegrown. This is her first solo exhibition in the UK and shows photos from her acclaimed series Domestic Vacations from 2008, in which she turns a whimsical camera on America and its oddities. I love this little lad puffing out his chest ready for Take-Off (2009). Will he make it to the cushions he's placed on the floor? Mom askew on the wall doesn't seem to think so.
