The more I look at the photographs by Jeff Brouws, the more I want to see them again. Today I watched for the second time at the serie “Freshly painted houses”. The first time it didn’t catch me that much but now … Maybe it’s because I love typographical photography. Not all of it of course but certainly a lot of it. Maybe it ’s because these kind of series always remind of Bernd and Hilla Becher. I think I’m always attracted by the quantity of these series. Watching one picture after an other knowing that the next one will be similar but different.

In his more recent work, “Approaching nowhere”, Jeff Brouws respond to the loss of geographical identity within the American landscape that has been homogenized into tracts of modular housing and big box stores tied togheter by highways.
