El portafolio de Arthur Drooker está súper bien, aunque todo se vuelve radicalmente interesante cuando llegas a la sección de “Cool Hunting“, pues allí verás el registro de convenciones de lo más locas.
Según nos cuenta el autor:
Each year, according to a Convention Industry Council study, there are 1.8 million conventions, conferences, and trade shows in the United States. These gatherings directly support 1.7 million jobs, $263 billion in spending, and $14.3 billion in federal tax revenue. As impressive as these figures are, they don’t interest me as a photographer. I see conventions not as revenue sources but as visual treasures. To me, they’re unique expressions of community, culture and connection. That’s why I’m attending a variety of conventions–the more unusual and photogenic the better–for a proposed book, Conventional Wisdom. I will update this portfolio as the project progresses. At the same time, I will preview the work in a series of reports on Cool Hunting, a cultural trend website. To view these reports, please click on the list below.
