Hardcover cloth bound.

"The Texas Gulf Coast stretches for hundreds of miles from the Louisiana border to Galveston and Corpus Christi, continuing all the way to the Mexican border. Breathtaking landscapes, big cities and motifs straight out of an American road movie line the coast, like a string of pearls: morbidly beautiful towns, dilapidated or picturesquely restored houses, and squares that look like film sets.

Between 1987 and 2024, photographer Jörg Rubbert travelled the Texas coast from north to south on six trips, capturing it all on film. In his somber analog black-and-white photographs, almost exclusively taken in October and November, Rubbert portrays the region and its people.

Subjectively and authentically captured, and enriched with anecdotes and texts on geography and history, Rubbert’s photos transport viewers into an American film noir, dreamlike and full of melancholic atmosphere."
