About
In the late 1970s, Welsh photographer David Hurn was awarded a UK/USA Bicentennial Fellowship: a one-year prize to take photographs in America. He could have gone anywhere in that vast country but settled on Arizona. Thus began a love affair that lasted more than two decades and saw him included in Magnum Photos' hallowed membership.
"At the time, Arizona was the most right-wing state in the US and Wales was probably the most left-wing part of the UK," said Hurn. "Also, it's the driest state while Wales is famously wet. Arizona just seemed such an extraordinary contrast."
