About This Book
Good Morning America, Volume One presents one of the longest photographic surveys of the United States, primarily conducted by Americans but uniquely viewed through the eyes of a foreigner. Mark Power traveled extensively back and forth across the country, offering a distinctive perspective on its diverse terrains and societies.
The project originated from Power's 2012 series 'Postcards from America,' which ignited his passion for a more comprehensive exploration. This work builds on his earlier precedent, 'The Sound of Two Songs' in Poland, adapting that approach to the American context.
Power's images emphasize the cinematic and epic format, honoring America's immense vastness and cultural richness. The timeline of the project, set to complete in 2022, covers significant periods including Obama's second term, Trump's first term, and the beginning of the subsequent presidency.
