David Wild's "photomemento" tells an Englishman's story lived to a soundtrack of jazz. At its heart are photographs made during a two-year stay in America in the mid-1960s, on a passage through New York, Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis, New Orleans. These pictures, in turn, formed the basis of photomontages.Jazzpaths is a partial document of the jazz scene of that time, mixing remarkable pictures of musicians with biting images of life on the streets.
