I was watching the news one day, when I came across a story about a local bay area photographer who was doing an assignment for her photo class about the hard-hit economy. Her project on foreclosed homes won her a Dorothea Lange Fellowship award. I think the ties between the Great Depression and Dorethea Lange's photography and our current economic depression and contemporary documentary photography is interesting. Really different in this case, but perhaps the situation right now could bring about some really iconic images for the future.
The last picture of the empty room reminds me of Jesse's work.
