remember?
In the winter of 1989, photographer Michael Galinsky began driving across the country to record the seismic change in America's malls: their transformation from the shiny retail palaces of the '80s into something weirder. Then 20 years old, Galinsky began with the Smith Haven Mall in Long Island, and drove west: through Michigan, Illinois, South Dakota, Washington State. His photographs—collected in the book Malls Across America, published this month by Steidl—document a nation that had yet to turn against the mall, and saw its culture play out in the atriums of indoor retail palaces.
