Suburbia: to some a utopia of homogeneity and manicured lawns; to others a nightmare of boring uniformity and residential sprawl.

January's Photo Friday presents works by eight photographers of suburbia and suburban living.  The photographs of Lewis Baltz, Joe Deal, William Larson, Bill Owens, Mickey Pallas, Andrew Phelps, Arthur Taussig, and Garry Winogrand document various aspects of suburbia from the marketing and building of suburban developments to the realities of living in these communities.
