A visual shell shock: With 'Generation Wealth' Lauren Greenfield has created a unique document of the recent decades' crazed consumerism in a world, which is increasingly obsessed with the dream of looking both beautiful and rich.

The American photographer and documentarist Lauren Greenfield (b. 1966) grew up in the white American middle class characterized by industriousness, education and a certain discretion. With the photographic series Generation Wealth she casts an eye-opening glance on 25 years of consumer culture which in the view of the artist has changed the values of the middle class to raw materialism, celebrity culture and undisguised narcissism.
