100 Young Americans is a nice cross-media project taking a closer look at the state of American youth today. Photographer Michael Franzini traveled through the US to portray American teenagers. If you happen to be in New York, Peter Hay Halpert Fine Art Gallery is hosting an exhibition of selected images until January 8, 2008.
The site says:
It’s not unusual for teenagers to have hundreds—or thousands—of online friends. They regularly chat with 20 friends simultaneously, while listening to music, watching TV, and talking on a cell phone. Fashion trends last months—or weeks—instead of years. Tiny obscure cliques take root and flourish in cities and small towns across America. My crew and I traveled to every state in the union—a total of 30,000 miles in 5 months— sometimes covering 3 states in a single day, to find a group of 100 individuals who best capture the full spectrum of teen life in America.
