From 2004 - 2009, Brodie created a prolific body of work which introduces viewers to an alternative lifestyle based on the constant movement of train travel across America. During this five-year span, Brodie rode over 50,000 miles through 46 states documenting the people and places he encountered along the way. \"I know almost everyone I shoot,\" Brodie states, \"three of the women in the book are ex-girlfriends and a couple of the guys...are best friends.\" Brodie captures his companions through intimate portraits set against ever-changing landscapes. His photographs capture the raw reality of his travels: the dirt, the blood, the struggles and, ultimately, a community of travelers who share the challenges and triumphs of life on the road. His photographs encapsulate a period of youthful exuberance and unbridled freedom. His images visualize modern versions of Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn or Jack Kerouac's On the Road, while also reflecting symbols of a passing era in American culture that include trains, punk aesthetics and Polaroid cameras.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Easy Going Records + Hifi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67659534041373,"sku":null,"price":1000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0803\/9517\/4173\/files\/9E8CDDCF-A808-41FB-A6E0-77D9F3496163.jpg?v=1790885116"},{"product_id":"mike-brodie-a-period","title":"Mike Brodie - Tones of Dirt and Bone - Signed, First Edition, Out of Print.","description":"\u003cp\u003eSigned, First Edition \u0026amp; Out of Print\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBefore A Period of Juvenile Prosperity, there were the days of the Polaroid Kidd. In the early 2000s, Mike Brodie first found his way into photography via the SX-70 camera. It was the last gasp of the golden era of Time-Zero, and the film was Brodie’s gateway. It was expensive, ten sheets to a roll, but he appreciated its inherent limitations; its idiosyncrasies, the way it brought out the tones of the railroad. He liked the way you could manipulate the surface of the film, the feel of the Polaroid, the smell of the toxic emulsion. Sometimes, it seemed like a living, breathing thing. Brodie wasn’t alone: Walker Evans, Andy Warhol, Ansel Adams, and Helmut Newton all praised the SX-70. Like Warhol, Brodie gravitated to the model mostly for portraits. In Brodie’s case, the pictures he made of people he met while riding freights, from Pensacola, Florida to New Orleans, to Washington, and along the way.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Technically Time Zero was the best fucking film ever made,” Brodie says.
