Supermarket

Supermarket by Rudy Vanderlans is a great-photography-book-possibly-a-nice-christmas-present. For lovers of Emigre, and its photo-graphic stories, this book is a definite must-have. It's full of Vanderlans' spirit of capturing the everyday and turning it into eye candy. In this case, he's taking the California desert and developer's initiatives to settle it, and delivers captivating images of surprising beauty.
Originally published in 2001, the book is priced from $45 to $53, but can be found for $14.99 and $11.99 used.
