Premonition1995
The eye-of-the-storm in Dominic Angerame's "City Symphony" series, PREMONITION occupies the ghostly interval between the Loma Prieta earthquake and the resulting demolition of San Francisco's Embarcadero Freeway. The abandoned highway is an apt figure for the imagination of disaster, encapsulating both the scale and folly of urban design. Sensual and grave, PREMONITION is both a fascinating document of the city in flux and a dreamlike augury of modernity's undoing. Closer to poetic realism than Vertovian montage, PREMONITION steels itself for an unknowable future. - Max Goldberg

Mostly derivative, but saved by the fact the A-G community is generous to a fault.
