Crossing: From USA to Canada, Walking Roxham Road de Ruth Kaplan

Crossing: From USA to Canada, Walking Roxham Road

Fotograf Ruth Kaplan Text de Sarah Bassnett, Raoul Boulakia
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 feb 2026
Jenseits der Grenze: mutige Schritte auf der Roxham Road "Crossing" widmet sich dem Grenzpunkt Roxham Road zwischen New York (USA) und Quebec (Kanada), einem irregulären Grenzübergang, der während Trumps erster Amtszeit zunehmend genutzt wurde. Geflüchtete versuchten dort nach Kanada zu gelangen, um einen Asylantrag zu stellen. Der Übergang wurde 2023 aufgrund anhaltender Kontroversen geschlossen. Zwischen 2018 und 2023 kehrte Ruth Kaplan immer wieder an diesen Ort zurück, um die vielfältigen Spuren und Begegnungen zu dokumentieren, die sich hier verdichteten. Als kleines, aber bedeutendes Kapitel kanadischer Geschichte bildet dieses Archiv eines meist sicheren und funktionierenden Grenzübergangs ein wichtiges Zeugnis - gerade in einer Zeit, in der wir uns mit den komplexen globalen Herausforderungen von Migration auseinandersetzen.

Descriere

A seemingly ordinary landscape becomes a life-changing threshold for thousands. Crossing by documentary photographer Ruth Kaplan is a long-term photographic project focused on Roxham Road, an irregular border site between New York State, USA and Quebec, Canada. Although not an official port of entry, the site became a passageway for people seeking asylum in Canada. During Donald Trump's first presidency, increasingly restrictive U.S. immigration policies led a growing number of asylum seekers to cross into Canada via Roxham Road. While controversial, the site functioned for five years as a largely safe and operational crossing, until its closure in 2023. Between 2018 and 2023, Kaplan documented Roxham Road and the many lives shaped by its existence. The resulting images trace a dense network of intersecting forces: migration and infrastructure, authority and care, geography, time, uncertainty, and endurance. Rather than isolating moments of crisis, Kaplan builds a layered visual record of a place defined by transition and tension, revealing how global political decisions materialise within a small, seemingly unremarkable landscape. At a time when displacement and border politics continue to shape lives worldwide, the book offers a grounded and attentive perspective on migration--one that resists simplification and is rooted in observation, duration, and presence. Readers are invited to reflect on borders not only as lines on a map, but as lived spaces.
