Tino Razo | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Celebrated skateboarder Tino Razo has documented — and shredded — abandoned backyard swimming pools throughout Southern California. The resulting body of work, showcased here for the first time in Tino’s book, elevates itself beyond a bunch of thrill-seekers navigating the suburban landscape, juxtaposing renegade sessions by world class skateboarders with dramatic architectural photographs of a lost American dream. Party in the Back, is a lyrical photo-eulogy for this disappearing pool culture, bathed in the golden Southern Californian light.
