Description:
An exhibition that features photographs, video projections, audio and ephemera documenting artists Michael Davis and Stephen Moore’s cross-country trip by car from California to New York in 1970 and their subsequent trip traveling the same route in reversing, form New York to California, in 2005. Their documentation tracks the globalization of the American economy, and its impact on the landscape. Present-day technology replaced film and hand-written journals with digital video and web updates. At the end of their journey, they perused the West Coast art scene. The artists are both alumni of California State University Fullerton. Michael Davis is based in San Pedro, California and Stephen Moore is based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
