Notes: "As part of its annual programme Looking over the shoulder of--, FOTODOK asked designer Hans Gremmen to give an insight into his daily practice throughout 2011. The Imagination of the American landscape was one of his lines of wandering research, of which parts were published on the FOTODOK website. This project, now available in book form, and the coinciding exhibition Objects in mirror: imagination of the American landscape, at Centraal Museum Studio in Utrecht (11 March until 8 April 2012) are the final results of Gremmen's working period"--P.
