In his new book of photographs Tobias Bärmann goes on the search for the
hidden sides of Los Angeles, City of Dreams. He traverses the gigantic
metropolis, designed to accommodate cars, on a bicycle. By slowing down
he discovers the aesthetics of transition and incompletion outside of
the city's glamorous surface. Many of the motifs are evidence of the
past acts of unknown protagonists. With a cryptic eye for the poetry of
the ephemeral and the supposedly trivial, Bärmann steers our attention
to everything that our civilisation seems to evoke accidentally.
