Sun City
by Peter Granser
Photographs: Peter Granser
Text: Peter Granser
Publisher: Benteli Verlag
130 pages
Year: 2003
ISBN: 3-7165-1303-2
Comments: English; 21,5 x 23 cm; hardcover
Peter Granser´s project “Sun City” is a series about a retirement colony in the American southwest, where you are only allowed to live, if you are over 55 years of age. In this strange city of spunky senior citizens, he encountered countless whimsical details. He took wrinkles, cacti, hair dryer hoods and plastic flamingos and compiled them into a basically true and only slightly exaggerated story about the future of aging. In “Sun City” being a senior doesn’t mean sitting in a rocking chair on the porch, looking back at the past, gradually taking one’s leave of life. Quite the opposite: Granser’s picture story is peopled by men and women who without any compromises or sentimentality have radically reinvented themselves in their latter years. Granser approaches this strange world with a sense of wonder and not with cynicism.
