"'Supermarket' by artist John Divola comprises a group of photographs of middle-aged women shopping for groceries in the early 1970s. The black-and-white photographs were made in the San Fernando Valley where Divola grew up. Made at the outset of Divola’s career, these images are at once melancholy - an element that runs through most of his subsequent work - and by their nature, humorously touching. They also provide a glimpse into Divola’s upcoming monograph, 'San Fernando Valley', which will be published by Nazraeli Press in 2014 as part of our forthcoming NZ Library series."--Publisher's website
