- Summary
- "The photographs of Los Angeles-based artist Charlie White (born 1972) explore the complex social and psychological realities of American culture. American Minor delves into an important and ongoing subtext of White's work: the American teen. By cataloging studio archives, film stills, animation stills, scripts, and photographs, the book highlights the artist's investigations of the representation of the American teen girl. Through images culled 7from White's two-year study of an exurban teenager, archives of magazine covers featuring iconic blond models, stills from his first 35 mm film, and his photographic comparative study of teens and transgenders, American Minor presents White's ongoing and never-before-seen studies of the American teen subject as image and idea. With a focus on the connection between White's complex fictions and his more objective studies of the realities of the American teen subject (in all of its fraught sexuality, power, and cultural import), this book sheds new light on the artist's oeuvre within the context of his new work in film, animation, and cultural archiving."--Jacket
