Rob Hann: Tucson to Tucumcari

Hann hits the highway anew

Artist Rob Hann is physically in New York much of the time. But I know deep down he’s always on the road. I’m thrilled to present a summery selection of rich and gorgeous photographs from a trip earlier this year.

“While trying to decide where to go on my latest road trip I found myself singing Little Feat’s 1971 song, Willin’, one of my absolute favourites. There’s a line in the song that goes “I’ve been from Tucson, to Tucumcari, Tehachapi to Tonopah” so that’s what I did. I flew into Tucson, Arizona, got a rental car and headed off. In 2 weeks I drove 5,700 miles and took in 7 States.

Curiously, I never took any pictures in Tucson or Tucumcari, Tehachapi or Tonopah.”
