An 18-Year-Old’s Diary Entries From August, 1969
When looking through photographer Caroline Mackintosh ‘s visual archive, the themes are immediately evident: beauty, youth, adventure. Using her lens, she paints a vivid storyline of an endless summer, stretched out over empty streets, swimming holes, and desert air.

Addressing the notion of the catalogue and how it has evolved with the advent of the internet, New York-born Simon’s new photographs reveal the subjective, idiosyncratic and sometimes ambiguous ways in which we classify our world. On the occasion of the series’ recent premiere at John Berggruen Gallery in San Francisco, the photographer—whose bright-burning career has already included a Guggenheim fellowship and monographic exhibitions at London’s Tate Modern, the Whitney Museum in New York and the Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin—sat down with Pinterest co-founder Evan Sharp.
