Lauren Greenfield (b. 1966, Boston) has explored our growing obsession with wealth in her photography and films since 1992. Traveling her native US and other countries worldwide, she documents our voracious consumer appetites, as everywhere ordinary people aim to emulate the rich and famous they see on TV. From the celebrities who shape our wants, to the luxury brand shoppers chasing the dream, Generation Wealth provides a behind-the-scenes glimpse at the insatiable desires that drive the run after fame and fortune, as well as their consequences.
