| | | | Yann Gross: HorizonvilleEdited by Yann Gross. Text by Joël Vacheron.
 Inspired by David Lynch's The Straight Story, Swiss photographer Yann Gross (born 1981) embarked on a motorbike journey through Switzerland's Rhône Valley. There, he found an uncanny match for the rural American Dream: biker babes, drag racing, line dancing and tricked-out RVs. In Horizonville, Gross examines how cultural types can exceed their geographical origins.

| | FROM THE BOOK"When Gross has a yen to travel, he fixes a trailer to his moped, packs his things and sets off down the Valley of the Rhone, in Switzerland. There, surrounded by mountains, a traditionally secular people has farmed and forced a living out of the land. It’s hard to imagine that on this land, some of them, having rejected the idea of ‘here’ have sought for themselves an ‘elsewhere’ that is right here. The America they have created in cunning disguise, ‘here’, is the America of the pioneers, the conquerors of the land. And Yann Gross’s journey plays on all the ambiguities. It is constructed as a documentary leap into an imaginary community of people drawn together by an apparent certainty about their identity that is strengthened by the fact that it is local. Welcome to Horizonville."
