Overview"Produced between 2011 and 2013, the Country Limit series covers a broad geographical zone that extends from the vast plains to the outskirts of American cities in several states. The title refers to the ""City Limit"" sign that marks the entrance into American urban areas. With a combination of social description and topographical observation, Ronan Guillou presents photographs of Americans in the rural world and of landscapes that are marked by human activity. Within this narrative are references to the myth of majestic landscapes and the pioneer era--allusions to nostalgia for yesterday's adventures and a bygone era.

The United States gradually became Guillou's main subject and is the ongoing inspiration for an odyssey in color across the America of this new millennium. His approach aims to combine both documentary intent and formal exploration, and allows luck and chance encounters to steer the narrative.
